Register Names
..............

   You can use predefined symbols of the form `rNh' and `rNl' to refer
to the H8/300 registers as sixteen 8-bit general-purpose registers.  N
is a digit from `0' to `7'); for instance, both `r0h' and `r7l' are
valid register names.

   You can also use the eight predefined symbols `rN' to refer to the
H8/300 registers as 16-bit registers (you must use this form for
addressing).

   On the H8/300H, you can also use the eight predefined symbols `erN'
(`er0' ... `er7') to refer to the 32-bit general purpose registers.

   The two control registers are called `pc' (program counter; a 16-bit
register, except on the H8/300H where it is 24 bits) and `ccr'
(condition code register; an 8-bit register).  `r7' is used as the
stack pointer, and can also be called `sp'.
