FWIW the reason for suggesting the cast to target_ulong is so that the same code 
works for both qemu-system-ppc and qemu-system-ppc64. For qemu-system-ppc that should 
correctly drop the sign extension from 32-bit, whilst still allowing someone to load 
a 64-bit ELF into qemu-system-ppc64 if requested.

Can you confirm that the sign extension behaviour is still correct for both 
qemu-system-ppc and qemu-system-ppc64? If so I'm happy to give it a R-B tag.


ATB,

Mark.
