There was reference to a book by Dewar and Smosna which compared SPARC and
MIPS. Does anyone know the publisher? I have been unable to trace it in
our library. So far my experience of SPARC has been less than good, as
the explanation in the Architecture manual leaves a lot to the
imagination. Some thing which really explained what happens to the stack
or window roll, how va_args is supposed to work, and so on would be really
helpful. In my code someone keeps trampling on the stack, and honest guv'
it's not me!
