There is a simpler solution: put the context pointer in rax.  
This is currently a caller-saved register, so there is no problem 
with clobbering it.  It is used for c-style variadics, but not 
d-style ones.  Since it is a register, nothing breaks when you 
have more parameters than fit in registers.  Any other problems?
