* s390-tdep.c: Tweak argument-passing to match GCC bugs.
(is_float_singleton, is_struct_like, is_float_like): New functions, that isolate the weirdness. (is_double_or_float, is_simple_arg, pass_by_copy_ref, is_double_arg): Use is_struct_like and is_float_like, rather than testing the type codes ourselves. (s390_push_arguments): When passing args on the stack, align each on to a four-byte boundary, regardless of what the type itself needs.
