Since I've had to move my testing to a different powerpc64 machine, I'm getting SIGILL
on code that looks completely valid, so I guess that something must be wrong with
instruction cache flushing. Unfortunately, gdb on said machine is flaky at best, so I
can only look at core dumps. It happens with "cacao hello", but not with "cacao" only.

Doesn't happen on our PPC64 machine. Maybe differing cache line sizes?
