Sorry I was partially wrong, at least in my 2.0.30 tree there is a check for
fs and gs, but not in 2.1.5x. And it seems the registers are not where
I claimed they were on (2.0.x gs is on the stack).:-(. I've been playing
with task switching recently (Ingo's soft task switch) and I did not
correctly remember differences between 2.0.xx and 2.1.xx.
