Try to enable the networking code or posix-support in rtems and you will get even more
compiliation break-downs caused by egcs-bugs, even for the SH1.
IMO, egcs/gcc's backend for the SH contains some severe bugs. However, I've not yet been able
to build isolated test cases to demonstrate these bugs. I guess there is something strange going
on in the backend if egcs/gcc fails to find free, unused registers.
