We don't have a 64 bit userspace (except for a toy one I created to test
out a few thing), so I'd be happy returning -ENOSYS.

I'll defer to the glibc guys on this.  The code before you modified it
is correct according to the ABI, but it does look like gate calls are
done with 8 args in registers on 32 bit in which case the above would be
correct.
