For debug info, it seems you are already handling this in
delegitimize_address target hook, I'd suggest just building some very large
shared library at -O2 -g -fpic on i?86 and either look at the
sizes of .debug_info/.debug_loc sections with/without the patch,
or use the locstat utility from elfutils (talk to Petr Machata if needed).
Can't hurt, but I really don't see how changing from a fixed to an
allocatable register is going to muck up debug info in any significant way.
What matters is if the delegitimize_address target hook is as efficient in
delegitimization as before. E.g. if it previously matched only when seeing
%ebx + gotoff or similar, and wouldn't match anything now, some vars could
have debug locations including UNSPEC and be dropped on the floor.
