OK.

I think there's still a problem here, though it is somewhat endemic to
the argument passing routines:

    TYPE_CODE_ENUM,             /* Enumeration type */
    TYPE_CODE_REF,              /* C++ Reference types */
    TYPE_CODE_CHAR,             /* *real* character type */
    TYPE_CODE_BOOL,

And possibly TYPE_CODE_MEMBERPTR too... that's a signed offset,
probably 32-bit in the n32 case.  Getting this right is a real
pain.
