The tpcs is also obsolete (the tpcs was replaced by the atpcs more than 20
years ago); the atpcs was superseded by the aapcs about 15 years ago now.

I'm not sure why the tpcs-frame and tpcs-leaf-frame flags weren't removed from
the compiler; they certainly doesn't do anything useful now.

Unfortunately, the aapcs does not define a frame pointer or mandate a frame
layout, which makes backtracing through a frame impossible.  Any frame pointer
used by the compiler can only be used within that frame.
