If it took up more than a register I'd say you have a legitimate gripe with your
compiler vendor. However, you definitely should use one of the forms gauranteed
to pass by reference if you *need* it passed that way for some reason. If you
just want it to do the most efficient thing (which is the ususal rationale I
hear from the C refugees), just let the compiler do it.
