Comment (by olli):

 Replying to [comment:6 Mike Frysinger <vapier@…>]:
 > why was this closed as invalid ?  other x32 bugs posted were
 (eventually) addressed.  i've also posted a way forward here.  if you
 don't want to fix the x32 bug, then wait for someone else to do so.

 because as you said, x32 is experimental and including x86_64 mnemonics
 into a i386 dedicated file is a dirty hack.
 a vaild fix would be providing assembler code for
 jump_fcontext/make_fcontext for x32/ABI.

 > independently, the build system sounds broken if its display doesn't
 match reality.

 then add an bug for the build system, please
