What do you mean? The problem I find is that forcing this to be the third parameter of cmain makes it look like cmain has been adapted to accomodate for this particular cpu. Another option would be to have just one param. This would be the cleanest on i386, since the call from OFW already uses -mregparm=1 for the callback address, but I don't know about powerpc. > By the way, please don't remove the declaration of cmain().

Isn't there code above this that pushes the 3 parameters onto the stack? -- Robert Millan <GPLv2> I know my rights; I want my phone call! <DRM> What use is a phone call… if you are unable to speak?
