Description Michael Saboff 2014-01-16 17:28:33 PST 
pushCalleeSaves and popCalleeSaves are pseudo ops in the low level assembler.  As such, the registers are not visible where these pseudo ops are used.  These pseudo ops should be eliminated and replaced with explicit pushes and pops.

Seems reasonable.

We should be careful not to use "emit" in too many places. This is one good place for it.

I agree.  Currently I don't have any other uses in mind.
