I can confirm that the bug exists in gcc-4.3.4 and gcc-4.4.5,
but it has been fixed in gcc-4.5.1 which generates:
bar:
link.w %fp,#0
move.l 8(%fp),-(%sp)
jsr foo
move.l %d0,%a0
unlk %fp
rts
I don't yet know the gcc PR number or svn commit # for the fix
(in case people want a backport).
It's gcc PR41302 which was fixed for gcc trunk on November 4 2009
in r153890. The patch backports easily to gcc-4.4 and solves the
test case there (manual inspection using a cross). It also backports
easily to gcc-4.3 but I haven't tested it there.
