Cute bug.

As for the workaround:

o64 will suffer the same problem that o32 does, since it's basically
o32 w/ 64-bit GPRs (and therefore, like o32, is required to leave
space for a0..a3 on the stack for use by called functions).

I don't know if EABI does the same thing.

Anyway, I think i'd advise either explicitly checking for o32 or o64,
or maybe checking for !TARGET_NEWABI (if EABI does have the same arg
space save requirement), instead of checking !TARGET_64BIT.
