Close, the problem is here:
		return (rnd % (2*sigma)) - sigma + mu;
    139d:	8b 4d dc             	mov    -0x24(%ebp),%ecx
    13a0:	8b 5d e0             	mov    -0x20(%ebp),%ebx
    13a3:	0f a4 cb 01          	shld   $0x1,%ecx,%ebx
    13a7:	01 c9                	add    %ecx,%ecx
    13a9:	53                   	push   %ebx
    13aa:	51                   	push   %ecx
    13ab:	e8 fc ff ff ff       	call   13ac <netem_enqueue+0x9dc>
			13ac: R_386_PC32	__moddi3

Will add second patch for that.
