Fixed per just committed patch. This lets the jit regression test pass, 
and lets Kaffe run the real regression tests. 26 fails on armel OABI 
linux with the jit engine. 0 with the interpreter engine.

The interpreter engine on EABI looks like it will also have 0 
regressions. I haven't tried the jit on EABI yet.
