As I said in my email, I have argument size safety checks in 
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/sysdep.h added. Since the check 
currently uses a simple sizeof(ARGN)>4 comparison passing an array without an 
& to INLINE_SYSCALL/INTERNAL_SYSCALL causes the check to fail.

I could play extensive __builtin_classify_type() games instead, but I thought 
it's not worth the trouble compared to adding a single '&' :-).

Franz.
