   Log Message:
   Go back from using %g2 (an application register) to %g7 (a system register)
   for syscall returns.


while i haven't compiled or testing anything with this change, i have some
questions and issues:

	- any flag day associated with thie change?  one assumes not but
	i've found i can't assume you and i think the same anymore :-)

	- i am fairly sure you no longer require the .register directive
	for %g7 that %g2 does:

! 	.register	%g2,#scratch
--  
! 	.register	%g7,#scratch


this line should just go away.
