Hmm, I had hoped that for the pattern to be activated the hard

Please change the pattern names to be eqiuvalent with the ones I used
for
the load patterns and the ARM port uses, e.g., "stmsiX". With that
change, the patch is fine.
I have no objection to this, but should point out that there are 2
variants,
formerly *store_multiple_power and *store_multiple_string, the latter
for PowerPC.
My patch only addresses the latter, because I don't see how to modify
the former
and I think it is not necessary (this is probably the case you looked
at when
you concluded this wasn't necessary). Do you still want the name
change?
