ACtually, there is a rhyme -- it's supported on x86, and not supported 
on non-x86, where A64 is considered non-x86 for some reason.  This 
makes sense given that calling conventions are by and large an x86 
kind of thing (at least, these specific ones).

So it's not a positioning thing, it's an availability thing.  Duh, 
shoulda thought of that a while ago.
