PASS: gcc.target/i386/pr14289-1.c (test for errors, line 10)
FAIL: gcc.target/i386/pr14289-1.c (test for excess errors)
Excess errors:
/home/ed/gnu/gcc-4.9-20131013/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/pr14289-1.c:5:14:
error: data type of 'a' isn't suitable for a register
Does that look like an ABI-Change?
the test case uses:
register int a[2] asm("ebx");
