Argh, I forgot that gnu as reorders MIPS opcodes, and I thought that the "move $gp, $s4"
instruction in the following code of LLIntAssembly.h was executed in the delay slot:

        ...
        move $s4, $gp
        jalr $t9
        move $gp, $s4
        ...

Whereas after compilation, it is reordered like this by the assembler:

        ...
        jalr $t9
        move $s4, $gp
        move $gp, $s4
        ...
