And I see this change, which is also reverse of where we are going:
-       u_int32_t       en_mxcsr;       /* SSE sontorol/status register */ 
-       u_int32_t       en_pad2;        /* padding */
+       u_int   en_mxcsr;       /* SSE sontorol/status register */
+       u_int   en_pad2;        /* padding */                

I thought that for hardware defined fields we were
using the explicit size definitions wherever possible?
(saves having to try remember which machine you are working on...
and now that there are posix defined names for these...
