Let me try. How much do you know about regstack? From where should
I start? Have you read/understood the comment in reg-stack.c from line
21 to line 82? Do you know the difference between virtual register
and hard register? If I have to start from zero, I really don't have
the time.

Maybe we should just forget about it. I really don't want to spend
any more time than you do on it.
