	You can, but you need a small assembly 'hook' to move the registers
	onto the stack.  For non-critical library calls this works fine.
	For critical library calls you would want to write it in assembly
	anyway.

	And, of course, if the library is designed for a C stack frame,
	no hook is needed (but all standard Amiga libraries pass 
	arguments in registers).
