Hi,

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31546#c5

add option to build libgfortran and fortran with -combine.
This creates a smaller binary and may also create a faster binary. The
former is the main motivation from my POV.
This is completely optional and is not enabled if you do not configure
gcc with '--enable-intermodule'.

The libgfortran part is ok. For the front-end part I would like to see code size figures too; since the other front-ends do not support it, I would prefer to do it for all-or-none (except Ada of course).
