Hi DJ, Below is a small patch to fix a small problem with the need_to_save() function in the RL78 backend. It was only marking the frame pointer register as needing a save if the frame pointer was in use. But since the frame pointer is call-saved it needs to be saved any time it is used, even if it is not being used as a frame pointer. This problem has not arisen before because the frame pointer is also marked as being fixed. But it turns out that it can still be used inside some inline assembler, and so the prologue and epilogue code still need to save and restore it.
Tested with no regressions on an rl78-elf toolchain. OK to apply ?
