Comment:

 i never said x32 was experimental.  it was released more than a year ago
 and is in shipping versions of packages (gcc/glibc/binutils/boost/etc...).
 closing bugs as invalid does not help anything.

 i managed to get the test to run and even the existing x86_64 asm does not
 work.  looking at bit more, it seems it's due to the asm encoding the
 sizes/offsets of the fields.  it's not hard to fix.
