When passed mode == BLKmode, mmix_function_arg generates a BLKmode reg,
which GCC chokes on later. (I see mode == BLKmode on 3.4 too.)
That seems invalid and rtl.texi, "node Machine Modes" says about BLKmode:
"In RTL, only memory references can have this mode"
I expect it to be a common target bug. A gcc_assert should be inserted for
register valued returns from FUNCTION_ARG.
>From code inspection, it looks like the following targets have the same bug:
arc-* arm-* avr-* cris-* fr30-* h8300-* i386-* [pruned; there may be more]
