Hi Eric,
I have added cld in the regenerated patch below.

No, the cld needs to be earlier.  It turns out this isn't the first use of
string instructions.

Can we rely on the int calls not setting df?  Otherwise we need to clear
df at each use as we do with all of the later uses.

Yes, we can, with a few exceptions. INT saves the flags and IRET restores them.
