Actually, %edx should be set to -1 so the pair %edx,%eax form -1
together.  I've added that to cerror now and thing work better.

I wouldn't worry at all about loosing a cycle on error return.
How often does that happen anyway?

But rewriting libc/arch/i386/sys/lseek as you suggest (except setting
%edx to -1 instead) is probably cleaner.
