I was confused for a minute as my eye tuned out the word '-leaf'
in the arg above, so I mistakenly thought you were proposing to
remove frame pointers entirely.

I recall the previous discussion around frame pointers was almost
exclusively around the main concept of frame pointers in general
(ie the main -mno-omit-frame-pointers arg). I don't recall any specific
points around the usage of the extra -mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer
arg, though it was indeed mentioned in the Fedora change proposal[2].

I guess I'd want to hear from the owners of the original change proposal
about their rationale / experiance with enabling both args, as opposed
to only -mno-omit-frame-pointers.

With regards,
Daniel
