yes.
So I checked in the attached. The patches also corners
RETURN_VALUE_ABI_PRESERVES_ADDRESS, but doesn't implement it yet.
I'll do that when I touch SPARC again.
The patch induces some PASS->KFAIL changes in the testsuite. This is
actually a problem with the testsuite. The tests in question assume
that if "finish" prints a return value, "return" should work.
RETURN_VALUE_ABI_RETURNS_ADDRESS makes this assumption invalid. We
should probably just remove those tests, but perhaps we can do
something smarter.
