register allocation in gcc for mcore elf

["Sumesh UdayaKumaran" <sumesh_uk@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi
   My question was abt how register allocation affected induction
variables which
are globals. My question is based on what I found with even small
programs. The induction variable value seemed to be always loaded from
memory. This was with a gcc cross compiler for MCORE. Can any body explain 
why this was so ? Is it that some register promotion pass  is needed to 
rectify the problem ?
