The problem of using create_tmp_var directly is that the following
pattern is now bound to creep up at quite many places:
tmp = create_tmp_var (TREE_TYPE (adj->base), "blah");
if (TREE_CODE (TREE_TYPE (tmp)) == COMPLEX_TYPE
|| TREE_CODE (TREE_TYPE (tmp)) == VECTOR_TYPE)
DECL_GIMPLE_REG_P (tmp) = 1;
Perhaps we should have something like create_gimple_reg_tmp_var that
would do this? If so, I'll be happy to add it.
