The Amiga-specific version will have different CPU register allocation. gcc
seems to use a6 as frame pointer on Linux, but a5 on Amiga OS. Both a5 and
a6 must be reserved registers on the Amiga.

There is still an issue with floating point that I haven't yet tracked down.
FP does not work properly/consistently on either JIT1 or JIT3, in Amiga or
Linux versions. There will probably be some Amiga/Linux differneces here
too.
