The below nasty hack cures it, but I hate it with a passion. I'll look deeper for a sane variant.
An alternative (that doesn't make the code easier to read, but would fix the issue at hand) would be touse a pushq imm16 with vector | 0x8000 instead to always make the value negative, no?
Which makes each entry larger than 8 byte which was frowned upon before.
And it does not solve the issue that we abuse orig_ax which Andy mentioned.
