I wonder if we can assume that most of GCC 4.7 based systems will be glibc 2.13
based, too. I would tend to say that yes and thus would suggest to tamn down
inlining that is no longer profitable on newer glibcs with a note in
changes.html...
(I worry about the tables in i386.c deciding what strategy to use for block of
given size. This is more or less unrelated to the actual patch)
