You're right about -Os, though I don't think it needs an option all for 
itself. Also, we probably won't be inlining all string operations, 
because some would be a real pain to maintain if they were inside the 
front-end.

What about simply call the library version if -Os is specified, i.e. 
make the new code conditional on optimize_size? Would that seem acceptable?

Thanks,
