Yes this was a known issue I knew about.  I have a patch GCC to fix
this.  Basically REG_VALUE_IN_UNWIND_CONTEXT needs to be defined while
building libgcc to support the correct unwind information.
I will be posting a GCC patch to fix this tomorrow.  This was a bug
even in the original set of ilp32 patches.  I only finally was able to
sit down and fix it today.

Thanks,
Andrew
