Log Message:
Recent versions of gcc may reorder instructions around inline
functions, breaking the semantics of splraise() and spllower(); to
counteract this, insert a "barrier" (empty asm) as a sequence point.

Reportedly fixes a stability problems on AMD dual-processor systems.

the code-gen barrier primitive will likely move to <sys/cdefs.h> once
we figure out what to call it; in the mean time define it locally.
