That patch you posted is dangerous.  If the stack isn't flushed,
there will be garabage in the frame pointer slots of the stack
frame, and likely that will cause an OOPS.

Please, let me try to resolve this as I find time to do so.  I am the
only person who knows enough about all of these internals so solve the
problem at this time.
