 commit bf6854bb44f833ec331e2f2c55a825dbaaa2aeec
 {{{
 Author: Ian Lynagh 
 Date:   Sun May 19 16:38:37 2013 +0100

     Fix build problem: Error: junk `.get_pc_thunk.bx' after expression;
 trac #7799

     Affects i386 only. Some gcc's generate code containing __i686, and
 then
     define that symbol to 1, which causes compilation to fail. We undef
     the symbol to work around it.
