Great!  Thanks for doing this.

But I wonder if the default value of PARAM_MAX_INLINE_INSNS should be
a property of the target machine.  Different targets have different
INSN densities.  I don't know how much this changes from one target to
another in the early rtl stages used for rtl inlining, though...  Does
anyone more experienced think it would be worth the trouble?  I could
produce a patch to make the default target-modifiable.
