Don't do that. Use local temporaries as I have been suggesting.

Then you should debug it to figure out what is going wrong...

No, you are misunderstanding here. The way QEMU works is:

 * frontend code decodes target instructions and converts
   them into generic TCG intermediate operations
 * backend code handles all generic TCG operations and
   writes suitable host code

Your front end needs to write out suitable generic TCG
intermediate code to perform the function your new
guest instruction does. (This might include "call this
function in the frontend at runtime" if the new
instruction is complicated.) There is never any need to
change the backends, because they all can handle the same
set of generic operations. Everything the front end
needs to do can be expressed using those generic ops.
