In your original message, the right thing happens.  The stack slot 
address gets reloaded.

The only problem here is that the register choice is wrong, and I 
already explained why it is wrong.

It is only after you started making some changes that this apparently 
broke.  It isn't clear why.  I can only suggest that you try to debug 
it.  Put a breakpoint in find_reloads() conditional on the instruction 
number.  Then step through to see what happens.  It should call 
finds_reloads_address or find_reloads_toplev at some point, which will 
see that we don't have a strictly valid address, and then reload it.
