The real question is: are stack arguments call-clobbered or

Stack area holding stack arguments should belong to the callee for tail-calls
to work (the callee will trash that area when laying out arguments for the
tail call; thanks to Rich Felker for pointing that out to me).

Thus it cannot depend on attribute-pure.
Which would imply that the outgoing argument stack slots must always be considered clobbered by a call.

FWIW, I'm fine with that interpretation ;-)
