	Is teaching locate_and_pad_parm that virtual_outgoing_args starts
with a fixed alignment offset from the stack pointer not worth
considering?

	If we go down the currently proposed path, I am more and more
inclined to make this approach conditional on TARGET_ALTIVEC_ABI as Aldy
originally proposed.
