It seems to me that basically all user programs must be compiled
without sibcalls. Maybe we'd like to compile parts of libgcj itself
with sibcalls enabled, though figuring out which parts are safe and
would benefit might be tricky.
I would suggest that we simply disable sibcalls in the front end and
let the user explicitly enable them with a command-line option, but
from the manual it looks like some -O options enable sibcalls. So
we'd have to override this somehow as well.
