I fixed it. shared_ptr_test with -O0 -g still segfaults on td176, but this
has nothing to do with the inline asm, as the same fault occurs
with -DBOOST_SP_DISABLE_THREADS. shared_ptr_test -O2 works fine, as does
smart_ptr_test. I tested the fix on the other IA64 testdrives as well, all
seem to work. Committed to trunk.

OK to commit to branch?
