gcc does not always save register arguments on the stack when calling other
functions with the address of one of these arguments as argument.

Example:
-----------------------------------------------------
#include <iostream.h>
inline conv(const char*c)
{
        cout << "conv arg:"<< *c << "\n";
        return *c;
}

class foo
{
  public:
        char rep;
        foo(char c);
};

inline foo::foo(char c)
:rep(conv(&c))					<--(1)
{
        rep=conv(&c);				<--(2)
        cout << "foo arg:" << c << "\n";
}

int main()
{
        char a='@';
        foo  b(a);
        return 0;
}
-------------------------------------------------------
The constructor foo::foo receives c in a register. It should initilize the
correspondig memory position before <--(1), since it must pass the memory location
of this variable to conv(...). Actually the initialization takes place just
before <--(2), which is too late.
