Here's an example of bad assumptions. The current code calculates the
subreg location BEFORE checking to see if such a subreg is legal.
This patch moved the legality check before the location calculations.
With this patch, I can build gcc's libraries and newlib, but I haven't
run full regressions on it yet.
