Sorry for the late replay.

The devirtualization is on hold. Currently GCC is lacking the necessary 
infrastructure needed by C++ interprocedural optimizations, like 
devirtualization. 

The appropriate infrastructure will be provided by LTO. I intend to 
incorporate the devirtualization in the LTO framework.
