I looked into the x86 side a bit.  I'm pretty sure we can just remove
the _safe variants.  All they do is spew warnings that don't seem to be
doing any good.  They're not really safer in any meaningful way.

Yes, one reason I am happy that we are removing them from core code :)


I've got a series cooked up to zap them, but I need to get some eyeballs
on it.

Feel free to CC me. If you're busy, let me know and I might have someone to tackle this.
