A number of tests in today's trunk fail with -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfloat-abi=softfp
-mfpu=neon with spill failures for the following form of instructions.

This occurs today on arm-none-eabi cross with r147930 and a related fix might
be http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-07/msg00703.html for one of the test
failures (20000804-1.c) .
I am testing the following patch based on Paul Brook's comments later in that
thread which might fix the problem
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-07/msg01618.html)
