> suggest a way that we could accommodate this? Prior to reload being completed, I don't see that it matters whether the argument pointer is fixed or not. See df_get_entry_block_def_set(). After reload, I believe that we also need to mark the register in entry_block_defs. There may be refinements to this depending on whether the argument pointer is used or not. This might improve register allocation. The argument pointer is always copied when it isn't fixed. See default_internal_arg_pointer(). For now, I would suggest being conservative. For example, we aren't fussy as to whether argument registers are actually used or not. Dave -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32398
