Actually why would you like to do this when lowering the arguments? It's possible that R31 is never used in the function and calling CreateFixedObject unconditionnaly will make the stack reservation for the function at least of 4 bytes, right? even if it doesn't need to. Both implementation work, but due to my small knowledge of what's going on in llvm :), I would like to follow your idea, but I don't undestand why it's better during arguments lowering than before callee-saved register scanning. > Thanks Nicolas!
