[Bug c++/27312] New: excessive stack use for automatic object on stack

["avi at argo dot co dot il" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

compiling the following

------start-code--------
struct X {
    void g();
};

void g();

void f()
{
    X x;

    x.g();
    g();
}
------end-code---------

yields (with -O2)

     subl    $24, %esp

in the prologue. without the empty class only 12 bytes are subtracted,
presumably to preserve stack alignment.

this is wasteful of stack space.
