The compiler seemed upset that the function returned a registered
variable, it compiled fine when I removed "register" from the declaration.

However, it doesn't appear to really matter, as removing the byteswap.h
code and adding this code results in the same "__udivdi3" undefined symbol
error.

I am more convinced than ever that it is a gcc/lib issue.

Many thanks, however, for your help.
