The testcase saves r30 and r31, but both are marked unused (don't
appear in regs_ever_live). Later rtl analysis decides that the
save instruction can be eliminated, thus the ICE. The real bug is
that r30 is not marked used when current_function_needs_context.
This is also the reason for PR5967.
The code that I copied from the !using_store_multiple case just
papers over this bug. So the above patch merely makes -mmultiple
and -mno-multiple consistently wrong.
