So remaining differences are necessary? I don't remember much sparc
assembly, but it seems carry handling is done slightly differently. But
appearantly there was no need for negation-on-the-fly tricks in
submul_1, you just use subcc instead of addcc for the final subtraction
(maybe we discussed that trick in some other context?).
