Well...  x86 has this problem as well, and when it pops up we address
it by going in and looking at the codesite which is generating the call
and fixing it.  And I do mean "fixing", because it's often the case
that the caller was doing something silly and inefficient.

So are you sure that we should do this, rather than massaging the
callers?
