Under unclear circumstances, some functions cause code to copy function 
parameters to local area of stack frame. Parameters are copied at declared size 
(unsigned short gets 2 bytes). If parameters are modified in function body, 
emitted code may use a long (4 byte) mode directly to the copied parameter in 
the local stack frame. I have an example from a fragment of the lwIP TCP/IP 
source that causes the problem. An unsigned short parameter was copied to -2(%
a6) and then later in the function an add.l %d1,-2(%a6) was emitted to perform 
a ++ operation on the parameter. This blows %a6 when the function returns and 
crashes the code. This particular instance only occurs when -O2 is used and 
only on Coldfire targets. On other m68k family processors, an add.w %d1,-2(%a6) 
is generated instead which works OK. With lower optimization levels, the code 
loads the value into a register, modifies it, and stores it with a move.w %d1,-2
(%a6). It is possible that this bug relates to bug #8309. I have a file 
tcpout2.ii (which I can provide) that demonstrates the problem. My host and 
build system is Cygwin under Win 2000. My command line is: m68k-elf-gcc -m5200 -
O2 -S tcpout2.ii
