Right, but I was talking about the normal case, where the unwinder
won't even look at .glink unwind info.

Yes.

Except that any info about r2 in an indirect call sequence really
belongs to the *called* function frame, not the callee. I woke up
this morning with the realization that what I'd done in
frob_update_context for indirect call sequences was wrong. Ditto for
the r2 store that Michael moved into the prologue. The only time we
want the unwinder to restore from that particular save is if r2 isn't
saved in the current frame.
Untested patch follows.
libgcc/
* config/rs6000/linux-unwind.h (frob_update_context <__powerpc64__>):
Restore for indirect call bcrtl from correct stack slot, and only
if cfa+40 isn't valid.
gcc/
* config/rs6000/rs6000-protos.h (rs6000_save_toc_in_prologue_p): Delete.
* config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_save_toc_in_prologue_p): Make static.
(rs6000_emit_prologue): Don't emit eh_frame info in
save_toc_in_prologue case.
(rs6000_call_indirect_aix): Formatting.
