Re: [RFA]: Fix serious ultrasparc return bug (corrupted return value)

Sorry for not writing this earlier.
This is fine for -m32, but doesn't make the bug go away if -m64.
For -m64, the test should be replaced with:

    case PLUS:
      if (GET_CODE (XEXP (*where, 0)) == REG
       && REGNO (XEXP (*where, 0)) == FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM
       && (GET_CODE (XEXP (*where, 1)) != CONST_INT
           || INTVAL (XEXP (*where, 1)) < SPARC_STACK_BIAS))
     return 1;
      break;

which unfortunately wouldn't handle reading from byte at virtual frame
pointer - 2047 bytes if -O -mcpu=ultrasparc -m64:
int baz ()
{
  char res[2059];
  toto (&res);
  return res[33];
}

So e.g. additional
    case MEM:
      if (SPARC_STACK_BIAS
	  && GET_CODE (XEXP (*where, 0)) == REG
	  && REGNO (XEXP (*where, 0)) == FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM)
	return 1;
      break;
should do the trick.

Ok for mainline with the above changes, for branch it is Mark who has to
approve it.
