Probably ruled out by the "no forth" rule,
the 6809 had data register stacking instruction for either the S or the
extra U stack pointer
        PSHS | PULS | PSHU | PULU       X,Y,D,CC,...
and I think you could use
     PULU PC,...
for return, just like you commonly use
     PULS  PC,...
as a quicker way of the standard return sequence
     PULS ...
     RET

Saving time stacking the data registers might make up the extra time
for nonstandard call resolution sequences.
