OK, let me see if I got that right.

Please bear with me, but AFAIK cs, ds, es and ss still need to point to 
a GDT entry with a 0 base and a limit of 2^64.

What about the following layout:

#if defined(__GNUC__) && !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__)
/* Anonymous union includes 16-, 32- and 64-bit names (e.g., bp/ebp/rbp). */
# define __DECL_REG(n64, n32, n16) union {     \

        uint16_t n16;                          \
    }
#else
/* Non-gcc sources must always use the proper 64-bit name (e.g., rbp). */
