The fix still includes one more constraint. Also the method used for PPC doesn't apply to ARM or MIPS, as they only have 4 registers to pass arguments, the remaining going on the stack. > Not opposed to changing the argument order, but given that we're inches > away from v1.2 (in Hard Freeze), it might be better to first get AREG0 > as first argument working for your favorite hosts as a bugfix and then > do any larger optimization for v1.3. It's what I tried to do first, but I don't think it is realistic to use such a code for v1.2, it is complex to support all cases, and thus likely full of bugs. Maybe we should simply disable ARM and MIPS support for this release. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net
