New issue 207 by [email protected]: Consider preallocating ecx for  
left shift
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=207

In the inlined code for the left shift Smi operation, we use the IA32 shift
instruction encoding that uses ecx as a fixed register.  The shift left
code sequence uses four registers, but this may be reduced to three by
preallocating ecx (before popping the arguments from the frame) to ensure
that neither argument is in ecx.
