[Oberon] Question on ORG.SaveRegs / ORG.RestoreRegs in the FPGA Oberon compiler

Not sure what you mean.  The value of the procedure (proper procedure or
function) variable will be in a register before the parameter evaluation
if, for example, it comes from looking up in an array or dereferencing a
pointer.
