Created attachment 120957 [details]
visualboyadvance-1.7.2-asm-fixes.patch

I needed to fix some asm-files before getting it to work on my x86 hardened box.

Thanks to Danny (Kugelfang) for providing the fixed asm stuff. After that, visualboyadvance and kvisualboyadvance are working perfectly fine.

games-emulation/visualboyadvance-1.7.2-r4 compiles here fine

is the bug still present, or can we close this ticket?
