Actually, I've tested the effects of the patch a few days ago,
building ppc-eabi on an alpha box, when I was testing the CONST_INT
sign-extension patches.

Here's the patch, again.  Ok to install?

Note that it only makes sense to install it in mainline, since the
CONST_INT sign-extension patches that get it to work are not in the
3.0 branch.
