This is ELFv1 ABI stuff that is still required to get the function working
for PowerPC64 big-endian systems. PowerPC64 little-endian systems is
compatible with ELFv2 ABI which has the classical prologue along with other
features.

Is it possible to override the PROLOGUE definition in powerpc64/machine.m4?

It would also be nice with a powerpc64/README summarizing register usage

I will follow the README for other architectures to make this one.
