GDC and leaf functions

[Manu]

Hmm, it seems PPC is working too.
Actually, maybe it's just SH4. I think my tests on other arch's were thrown
by bad compiler options.
Hmmm...

extern(C) float testfunc(float v, float v2)
{
return v*v2 + v2;
}


PPC:

testfunc:
fmadds 1,1,2,2
blr


MIPS:

testfunc:
j $31
madd.s $f0,$f13,$f12,$f13



SH4 Produces:

testfunc:
mov.l .L3,r1
lds.l @r1+,fpscr
add #-4,r1
fmov fr4,fr0
add #4,r1
fmac fr0,fr5,fr0
rts
lds.l @r1+,fpscr


But it should be:

testfunc:
fmov fr4,fr0
fmac fr0,fr5,fr0
rts
