I want to be super careful here, this part of the build has been super
tricky in the past.  Just noting before this potentially gets merged
without any testing; we should verify the generated code does not
change with Clang.  In the past, this code compiled but would GPF
sometimes when called into via userspace (see my previous commits
here).
