Won't work. There are still 12 operands, and GCC still has a hard-coded
limit of 10. [ Also, you're rather constraining the optimiser with
those hard register settings, and with so many fixed registers the
compiler may run out of registers trying to shuffle all the values into
the right registers. ]
The 10 is because the %digit syntax has never been extended to %digits.
There was a discussion on the egcs list many months ago about extending
this, perhaps to include names operands such as %{src}. But it didn't
get very far.
Try <gcc@gcc.gnu.org> if you want to take this further.
