After testing some more, it seems fairly likely to be a compiler bug.

Compiling the file in question (mods.c) with -O0 makes the problem go away.
Likewise, compiling it with gcc-4.1 (with -O2) makes the problem go away. I'm
unable to point at anything directly wrong in the code, but I'm not familiar
with arm assembler. I'll try building the entire package with gcc-4.1, but
that will take another eight hours. (Perhaps I should try bisecting the list
of available -f flags, but I'm not sure how useful that would be...)

Cc'ing Martin Michlmayr, since this looks like another case for switching to
gcc-4.1 in etch.
