Instead, add a new method:
	STABS_REG_STRUCT_HAS_ADDR
with a default of:
	if (DEPRECATED_REG_STRUCT_HAS_ADDR_P ()
	  return REG_STRUCT ... ();
	else
	  return 0;
(no predicate) (I think I've got that right) (better name?) and 
deprecate REG_STRUCT_HAS_ADDR{,_P}.  I think stabsread.c can then switch 
to the STABS variant.

That should let you safely disentangle the SPARC without breaking 
"stabsread.c".

The switch to push_dummy_call_p shouldn't cause unexpected side effects 
such as disabling REG_STRUCT_HAS_ADDR_P.  From memory, I've got the 
current code down to just one and even that doesn't really need it.
