[avr-gcc-list] Clobber list isn't working

[Gre7g Luterman]

I suppose I could be misunderstanding how the clobber
list of an inline asm statement is supposed to work,
but it doesn't seem to be working for me.  I specify
that I'm using r28 and r29, but the code following my
asm statement continues to use Y as if it was
untouched.

To demonstrate, I've written the following (absurd)
block of code:

void test(void)
{
    struct
    {
        int a, b, c, d, e, f;
    } x;

    x.d = 5;
    asm volatile("nop" : : : "r28", "r29");
    x.d = 6;
}

Obviously, the nop statement doesn't really clobber
r28 or r29, but my actual, far more complex code does.
 Regardless, gcc should be respecting the fact that I
told it I am clobbering these two registers.

  18:   98 87           std     Y+8, r25        ; 0x08
  1a:   8f 83           std     Y+7, r24        ; 0x07
    asm volatile("nop" : : : "r28", "r29");
  1c:   00 00           nop
    x.d = 6;
  1e:   86 e0           ldi     r24, 0x06       ; 6
  20:   90 e0           ldi     r25, 0x00       ; 0
  22:   98 87           std     Y+8, r25        ; 0x08
  24:   8f 83           std     Y+7, r24        ; 0x07
.
:

As you can see at 0x22 and 0x24, Y is getting used
without being reloaded after the nop at 0x1C.

I've tried using clobber lists of "Y", "y", and even
"r28,r29" in case it was a semantic thing, but gcc
errors out correctly on all of them.

Does anyone have a guess what it is that I'm missing?

TIA,
Gre7g
