I do create a spill slot that is easily accessible from FP, that's the whole point of this patch. Unfortunately I have to force FP usage in these cases, hence the hasFP changes.

I don't see any way to this SP relative, since at the point of the call SP has to point to the callframe, no way around that. And the callframe is so large in this situation that we cannot reach the spillslot before it by a simple immediate.
