	arg 5		%edi	     call-saved

   The stack layout upon entering the function is:

	24(%esp)	Arg# 5
	20(%esp)	Arg# 4
	16(%esp)	Arg# 3
	12(%esp)	Arg# 2
	 8(%esp)	Arg# 1
	 4(%esp)	Return address
	  (%esp)

   (Of course a function with e.g. 3 argumentS does not have entries for
   arguments 4 and 5.)

   We put the arguments into registers from the stack, and save the
   call-saved registers, by using the 386 `xchg' instruction to swap the
   values in both directions.  */
