You mean that lwbrx is disabled for example ? I did not notice that in 
your patch.

An important note: the PowerPC host register usage is currently disabled 
in QEMU in system emulation mode (see dyngen-exec.c:88) because there 
are issues left in exception support. Once it is enabled again, there 
will be a noticable speed boost.
