There seems to be snag in re-targeting to a processor
which does not define FRAME_GROWS_DOWNWARD but attempts
to set ARG_POINTER_REGNUM and FRAME_POINTER_REGNUM equal.
  In this case FIRST_PARM_OFFSET should be the frame size
of the function - but get_frame_size() returns zero at
this point.

This shows up in the (incomplete) 88000 version and
my own experimental version.
 
Am I missing something? or do I need an explicit argument
pointer?
 
(Reason for not defining FRAME_GROWS_DOWNWARD is that target
does not support negative immediate offsets.)
 
Is  bug-gcc@prep.ai.mit.edu  the right address for re-targeting
questions ?
