We need more info in order to determine what is wrong.  Some RTL 
examples would be nice.  Also, a copy of your pattern in your md file 
that matches call instructions.

Also, in which pass does the load symbol instruction disappear?  If you 
compile with -da, you will get RTL dumps after each optimization pass. 
You can look at them to see where problem was introduced.

There does appear to be a problem with your port, but there is also a 
way to work around it.  If you define NO_FUNCTION_CSE, then gcc will no 
longer try to optimize function addresses by loading them into pseudos. 
  See the docs for this macro in the doc/tm.texi file.
