  Ok, so the real problem here is that NARROW_MODE is not set, but is
  used to differentiate whether to use the 32bit cmp only or not.
  
Eh?

  Richard, there are 2 ways out of this:
  
    1) get rid of NARROW_MODE and always check ctx->sf

No!

The cmp insn with L set should NOT be affected by SF.  That's the entire
point of my change.

I reviewed the other uses of NARROW_MODE and didn't spot any errors.
(But I must confess that I would need to red the PPC manuals better inn
order to tell for sure.)

    2) add a new 32bit only insns flag and create separate functions for 32bit cmp calls
  
Aurelien's patch looked promising, if one removes the exception casting.
