Interesting problem. I looked in the GCC manual for a matching
constraint to satisfy this, but didn't find anything that seems to fit
right away. SPARC has the

    `U'      Even register

constraint, and perhaps it would be make good sense to have the same
for ARM. Not that it helps right the current situation, but anyway :-)
