Please use builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_... instead of builtin_type_...
I'm just trying to get rid of those ...

This logic seems a bit convoluted. Why not something along those lines:
/* Choose register numbers for all supported pseudo-registers. */
tdep->ppc_ev0_regnum = -1;
tdep->ppc_dl0_regnum = -1;
tdep->ppc_vsr0_regnum = -1;
tdep->ppc_epf0_regnum = -1;
cur_reg = gdbarch_num_regs (gdbarch);
if (have_spe)
{
tdep->ppc_ev0_regnum = cur_reg;
cur_reg += 32;
}
if (have_dfp)
{
tdep->ppc_dl0_regnum = cur_reg;
cur_reg += 16;
}
if (have_vsx)
{
tdep->ppc_vsr0_regnum = cur_reg;
cur_reg += 64;
tdep->ppc_efpr0_regnum = cur_reg;
cur_reg += 32;
}
gdb_assert (gdbarch_num_regs (gdbarch)
+ gdbarch_num_pseudo_reg (gdbarch) == cur_reg);
Otherwise, this looks good to me.
