Thanks for the clear explanation.  I did not realize that S registers
could switch pointers, that does make things a little harder.  I have
a recommendation for a possible hybrid solution.  Incur the cost of
spilling I,S,N registers heavily.  Restore the state of P register.

I suggest this because it seems likely that P registers will have much
greater pressure on them then the others.  This would allow us to
minimize the spilling of them (where spilling is most likely), while
still allowing the usage of I,S,N registers (which are less likely to
be used to the point of spilling.
