Well it's not as widely used as kvm itself yet :)
The patch seems simple enough though.

OK that's easy to fix.

It does produce warnings with -Wall though:
Assembler messages:
Warning: using `%ax' instead of `%eax' due to `w' suffix
Warning: using `%al' instead of `%eax' due to `b' suffix
So it's not the compiler, the compiler generated wrong
code with outb %eax. But assembler saw outb and %eax which
are inconsistent and decided that outb should take precedence.
I'm not sure it's wize to rely on this behaviour though.
How's this? This should fix 4.2 for you too.
Maybe we should tweak outb/outw as well to keep it
all consistent. I can do this - what do you think?
