	sub    $0x40,%rsp
	and    $0xffffffffffffffc0,%rsp

This hits the 'older GCC, drap with frame pointer' case in OP_SRC_AND.
Which means we then hard rely on the frame pointer to get things right.

However, per all the PUSH/POP_REGS nonsense, BP can get clobbered.
Specifically the code between the CALL and POP %rbp below are up in the
air. I don't think it can currently unwind properly there.
