xmpyu was not used because the option -mdisable-fpregs was used,
disabling the pattern.  The test code is from a parisc-linux
kernel build.  Whether it is this is the best choice on a PA 2
machine, I'm not sure.

I think the call patterns can be modified to handle this situation
provided the call doesn't need more argument space than has been
allocated.
