[PATCH] VAX/ELF: Store all call-saved registers upon PLT stub entry

I think that your idea is good.  Since nobody else has commented on the 
issue of VAX PLT stubs, I would guess that they are not currently being 
used elsewhere and so it would be safe for you to make this change 
without worrying about backwards compatibility.  Hence:

Approved - please apply.
