The previous version had side effects outside of the crash dump code.

+
+The specific case I am encountering is kdump under Xen with a 64 bit
+hypervisor and 32 bit kernel/userspace.  The dump created is 64 bit due to
+the hypervisor but the dump kernel is 32 bit for maximum compatibility.
+
+It's possibly less likely to be useful in a purely native scenario but I
+see no reason to disallow it.
