Erm, did I miss something? The 32 bit ABI doesn't say anything about
even/odd register pairs for 64 bit values. Also gcc doesn't generate
such code:

extern void fn(int a, long long b, int c);

void bla(void)
{
	fn(0, 1, 2);
}

00000000 <bla>:
   0:   90 ef f0 38             stm     %r14,%r15,56(%r15)

Not that it really matters, since other archs enforce the rule anyway.
