But creating temporary (bit) copies on the stack is still allowed for 
non-PODs, right?

Wouldn't it be legal to still pass non-PODs in registers when calling 
functions and only copying them back to the stack if the address is 
needed? As we pass structs by value anyway, how could this be problematic?
