OK. Sorry for the mess up with >>4 vs. >>2, that was one of those  
stupid untested last minute changes (the code did "/4", then just  
before making the patch I decided the change it to a shift... and then  
barfed it up, badly *sigh*)

Seems to work like a charm so far. Of course I can only test the C  
code, not the ARM one.
