This has been fixed for ages. The problem is in /lib/c2, where it
folds cvt[bw]l+bicl instruction pairs into extzv instructions: it
should not do this if the left operand of the cvt instruction
contains an auto increment or decrement. The easiest way to fix
/lib/c2 is to disable the optimisation completely. A better fix
is no doubt already in the Mt. Xinu bug list and is already in the
4.3 c2.
