So, it turns out that the red zone on ppc doesn't include the altivec  
registers. OK, no problem on those targets (ABI_V4) that happen to  
push the stack early enough. Unfortunately darwin isn't one of them  
so a little rearrangement is necessary. However, this doesn't really  
affect V4 much in that we just save the registers a little later in  
the sequence after we've pushed.

Tested by bootstrap and regression test on ppc-darwin. OK?

	saving after stack push.
