This is a STRICT_ALIGNMENT machine, therefore DFmode and DImode
operands must be 8-byte aligned, thus the EXTRA_CONSTRAINT check
ought to be redundant, no?
I remember there were some issues with var-args, which could make
"long long" and other DF/DI mode values go into the stack only 4-byte
aligned. This case needed to be handled, and I am pretty sure this is
where all the wacky constraint stuff comes from.
