Global register variables on Sparc

Using GHC 5.00.2 on Sparc (Solaris 2.7) yields

   warning: call-clobbered register used for global register variable

when -Wall is given (for registers F1, F2, F3, F4, D1, and D2).
Nevertheless, things seem to work fine. Is this only an artifact of
-Wall or something more serious?

Cheers,
   S.
