USING THIS CAN CAUSE SEVERE FILESYSTEM CORRUPTION.
In the interests of science I tried out the code that was posted on my early k6-166.
The fastcall program segfaulted.
I tried to run it under gdb and my system instantaneously rebooted, leaving me with a badly damaged root filesystem.
So be careful.
