If the declaration of the function is correct there should be no

for example:
int calc(int a, int b);

Should it? 32-bit caller would push 64 bit worth of data on the stack.
16-bit callee would only pull 32 bit worth of data. The callee would put
return value into AX register, leaving the high word of EAX unmodified.
How again is this supposed to work?

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
