llvm dev - Mar 2008 - [LLVMdev] RFC: tailcall ppc32 patch

Hi there,

it's me again. attached is preliminary support for tail calls on ppc
32. (once i get access to a 64bit machine that part will follow). It
has passed the llvm-test with the -tailcallopt flag enabled. (after
half a day on an old g4/800 :)

okay to submit? probably not. :) suggestions.

regards
arnold

I can see some stylistic issues. e.g. getFramePointerFrameIndex() etc.  
should be declared const, also please make sure there is a space  
between 'if' and '('. But I don't enough about PPC to really
pick on
it. :-)

Dale, can you look through the patch?

Thanks,

Evan
