asm-ppc/unistd.h is sloppy with the register clobber list for some of

will issue a bunch of error messages like this:

  include/asm/unistd.h:439: error:
  asm-specifier for variable `__sc_4' conflicts with asm clobber list

I'm currently testing a more comprehensive patch, which I will submit soon
(see the stuff in current glibc cvs to get a glimpse).

Out of interest, what are you building that needs these macros?
