------- Additional Comments From steven at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-01-31 23:17 ------- FWIW we don't emit the tail call because of this: /* If this function requires more stack slots than the current function, we cannot change it into a sibling call. */ || args_size.constant > current_function_args_size args_size.constant == 8 (2 ints) and current_function_args_size == 0 because nothing gets passed on the stack.
