That's fairly right, but I'm not sure that the problem lays here.
Indeed, as Laurent mentioned in his mail on monday, my 2 previous patchs with 
fixes for ARM instructions were not integrated too while I hope I've put a 
fairly descriptive text with them ( I re-attach them if you have any comment)

Suject : [PATCH] ARM: fix carry flags for ARMv6 unsigned SIMD operations

[PATCH] ARM: fix carry flags for ARMv6 unsigned SIMD operations
On ARMv6 emulation, I have caught some cases where the GE flags were
badly set after a "uadd8" operation.
After a quick code review, it seems to be a bad cut-n-paste between
16-bit and 8-bit UADD/USUB, indeed UADD8/USUB8 tries to set GE bits by
pair instead of one at a time.
Besides, the addition operations (UADD8/UADD16) set GE bits to "NOT
carry" instead of "carry" (probably once again due to a copy of the 
substraction code which sets flags to "NOT borrow")

I attach a patch to fix those issues. (arith_ge.patch)

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: fix CPS instruction

I attach a patch with 2 fixes for the ARMv6 instruction "CPS".
According to ARM Reference Manual (DDI0100 A4.1.16), 
bit 5 is fixed to 0 (bit 4 is the MSB of the mode), so the instruction mask 
should be  0x0ff10020 not 0x0ff10010.
Besides, mmod flag is bit 17 (b14 is SBZ)
