It looks (unsurprisingly) like a lot of the nastiest and hardest-to-fix

The new register allocator has the potential to get rid of reload.
Hence, I'm curious about its current status; if it's close to ready
(i.e. very likely to be in 3.4), we may not want to work too hard on
reload bugs in the meantime.
It will be in 3.3 but not turned on by default, use -fnew-ra to turn it
one.
Thanks,
