Well, the trick is that tic4x-gcc assigns ar3 as an fp register (at all
times), so you wind up stuck in the middle here. You have an FP-like
register, yet it's not named FP.
But I've rough-ported the d10v unwind mechanisms to the tic4x port, and
it seems like I am able to work it out without the fp register. (Still,
I need to understand those unwind things..)

Yes, and its these new mechanisms I'm trying to work out. I'll take a
look at the i386 port, and see if I'm able to resolve its functionality
from that.
