Code produced with -fPIC reserves EBX, but compiles bad __asm__ anyway

>Description:
[ Reported to the Debian BTS as report #73065.
Please CC 73065@bugs.debian.org on replies.
Log of report can be found at http://bugs.debian.org/73065 ]
According to the bug submitter, both files should fail to compile with
the same warning. He has produced verifiably incorrect asm code using
the latter syntax. Rechecked with gcc-3.1.
intech20:/tmp$ cat foo.c
int
main(int argc,char * argv[]) {
int i=0;
__asm__ __volatile__ ("addl $1,%%ebx\n\t" : : "b" (i));
}
intech20:/tmp$ cc -fPIC foo.c -o foo
foo.c: In function `main':
foo.c:6: Invalid `asm' statement:
foo.c:6: fixed or forbidden register 3 (bx) was spilled for class BREG.
intech20:/tmp$ cat foo1.c
int
main(int argc,char * argv[]) {
int i=0;
__asm__ __volatile__ ("addl $1,%%ebx\n\t" : : "a" (i) : "ebx");
}
intech20:/tmp$ cc -fPIC foo1.c -o foo
intech20:/tmp$
