Ok, tried that...

Now xorg-server doesn't segfault, but hang in an infinite loop.

Adding printouts after the loop shows that the upper and lower parts of the
register are inverted:

(contents of the "tails" array):
  0 0x28e1c98
  1 0x28e1c90
  2 0x28e1ca8
  3 0x28e1ca0
  4 0x28e1cb8
...

So, the movlps is correct to fill the lower half of the register without
touching the upper half, but the "movd %rax, %xmm1" should fill the upper half
instead. I tried changing it into a movhps, but that won't take the %rax as
source register.
