Ah - sort of, but not. I spent a while last week disecting the
configuration defaults when Nathan asked me about this. In fact, while
m68k.h defaults to pcc structure return, the "embedded" configurations
all turn it right back off again - including m68k-aout, m68k-coff,
m68k-elf, and m68k-rtems. The only thing I saw which definitively used
it was NetBSD ELF.
