Thanks!

The way this hardcodes r17 *will* break, btw.  The compiler will not
likely want to use r17 as long as your code (after inlining etc.!) stays
small, but there is Murphy's law.

Anyway...  something in rseq_str is wrong, missing %X<n>.  This may
have to do with the abuse of inline asm here, making a fix harder :-(
