Hm? It is only x86 specific because (except for Altivec with intrinsics)
because x86 is the only architecture for which we have inline asm for 32
and 64 bit variants.
Also a native_reg type should be useful for generating better loop code
from C code on all architectures that support register-indexed
memory loads/stores.
