     37  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * NB: __vfork14 is a tricky syscall.  We can't save
     38  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * any values on the stack, because the stack will be
     39  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * trashed by the child, leaving garbage for when the
     40  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * parent returns.
     41  1.5.8.2  martin 	 *
     42  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * So we must save values in registers, specifically,
     43  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * registers that the kernel is willing to preserve
     44  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * across the syscall.  Normally, this would be callee-
     45  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * saved registers, with the kernel being the callee,
     46  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * but the problem is that we, too, are a callee, and
     47  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * would have to save that very same register somewhere,
     48  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * because *our* caller is counting on us to do so.
     49  1.5.8.2  martin 	 *
     50  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * What we need is a normally caller-saved register,
     51  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * that the kernel is willing to save for us.  The
     52  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * syscall entry code in locore.S has been modified
     53  1.5.8.2  martin 	 * to do just this for the t4 register.
