We already know that aCC doesn't match the ABI spec in much more serious
ways than this.
G++ is in this boat too; there's now a switch to say whether you want
the first try at the ABI, or a more correct version.
If we start trying to make these half-way changes, we're going to make
an already too-complex ABI even more complex.
How do we reach consensus?
