I don't totally disagree.  But it seems to me that there may be cases where
ABI's are going to mandate something like this and we won't be able to 
work around it as easily as we can do in the PA port.  The only reason we
can work around it on the PA port is because the argument registers and the
return registers happen to be disjoint.
