  The testsuite starts failing very early with these changes.
  
Sorry about that.

As always with assembly code, tests/devel/try is our friend.
It points out the error, and tests thoroughly.

I believe it would have complained about the return value and nothing
else.  There was a typo where I use %o0 instead of %i0 for the
destination register in the last arithmetic instruction of both
functions.

Why doesn't your functions use the 'return' insns, btw?

PS. I have created a poor man's T3 with some m4 macros.  This will allow
me to test T3 code on an old v9 machine.
