I think so. The problem is that SH-3 and SH-4 use the different calling
conventions for long long argument when the only half 32-bit of it can
be passed via R7. SH-3 ABI does and SH-4 ABI not :-(

I've just seen
  http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/linuxsh/linux/
and found that it was applied to HEAD (2.5.71) and the linux-2_4-branch
(currently 2.4.21) at least.

Sorry for the inconvenience. It would be better to apply it against
2.4.13, for example, because it is still used widely.
