This is not correct with regard to the calling convention.  The
calling convention is implemented within gcc itself.

gcc does not implement stdcall on ia64.  I doubt that anybody does.
It is much less interesting when most parameters are passed in
registers.

The ia64 ABI which gcc implements is documented here:
