It's surely better and would be the right way if this was
the problem for the primary or the secondary targets.
My work-around patch is to avoid releasing 4.4 with this
wrong code issue on SH without preventing the other targets
moving to the new register allocator from the old allocator
which is planed to be removed in the near future.  Vlad kindly
says in a trail of the PR that he will take a look at this
issue, so I hope that this temporary work-around can be
reverted and the PR will get the right fix before getting
4.4 out of the door.
