Steven asked: "What do you folks think of this patch?" and the only answer was by Richi: "I think it's reasonable."
So I'm not sure why it didn't go in. Maybe we should just ping Steven?
It's been a while, but I think discussion elsewhere (a bug log maybe?) indicated that Steven wasn't happy with it.
Hmm, right, that's probably: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38785
Latest status seems to be that the original patch no longer applies, but Joern did an updated (and somewhat modified) version. This seems to have triggered a more general discussion on how to correctly estimate the effect of adding PHI nodes on code size ...
