Some m68k return pointers in a0, integers in d0, fp in fp0.

Alpha, MIPS, PPC and many others take fp arguments in fp regs,
others in int regs.

Sparc64 splits structures <= 32 bytes into fundamental types
and promotes them by type into integer and fp regs.  Structures
larger than 32 bytes are passed by reference.
