FWIW, from the compiler tools perspective it's not all that useful.
It's just as easy to write/generate something like
.param pmc arg0
and then use "arg0" instead of $P0 throughout the remainder of
the sub. (Or pick any other useful alphanumeric prefix that isn't
one of 'P', 'S', 'N', or 'I'.)
I'm in favor of removing the ".param $P0" syntax.
