No, it doesn't fix a problem with builtin expansion.  I've only backported the mainline patch
because it was inconsistent and there might problems arise with warnings as well.  I could also have
removed the arity == 6 case.

Yes. It is inconsistent to builtin-types.def. Not sure if it is worth fixing it.

I test the builtins with a script which generates the testcases from s390-builtins.def.  The result
are about 10000 testcases I didn't want to check in.
