Turns out the patch I was thinking about is only for the rs6000 port: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-05/msg00266.html so that's not much help. Do we want to implement this as a separate pass? at which point of the compilation? (doing it during ipa might be a problem if ipa is not enabled?) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27770
