Hello, The attached switches the PPC architectures over to the new "return_value" gdbarch method. Due to a lack of coverage in the testsuite, this change doesn't actually improve the existing test results (ppc64 GNU/Linux and ppc32 NetBSD). Consequently, I wrote some new tests (will post in next few days) that beef up the testsuite and, with them, the results definitly improve! Anyway, ok to commit? Andrew
