   It is possible to mess up the substitution that the vregs pass performs.
IIRC, it happened to me once because I accidentally put one of these virtual
pseudo inside a (clobber) or (use) or something like that. I don't quite
recall the details, but maybe the substitution fails if they appear outside
an operand?

There is one annoying case in PR32374, where on-the-stack constructor
creates invalid memory clobber that includes virtual-stack-regs. These
are simply ignored by vregs pass and this confuses dataflow register
initialization.

Uros.
