Subject: [RFA] Fix i386-sse.exp regression on Darwin
Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2009 16:03:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <A957CEE8-7213-428A-9696-3B54B51AC8A7@adacore.com> (raw)

Hi,

xmm0 is a scratch register for the Darwin/i386 ABI and therefore may  
be destroyed by calling a function.
This patch fix a regression on Darwin by replacing a function call by  
a asm nop.  The only purpose of the
function call was to be able to put a breakpoint.

Tristan.
