Everybody,

Isn't it possible to set -fno-var-tracking-assignments for just
vmstructs.cpp?
In my opinion it's really helpful to have as much debug info as possible
in the product binaries.

Story:
VTA fails on huge VMStructs::init() so this method is being compiled twice.
VTA[1] allows compiler to emit DWARF-3 debugging information for local
variable ever if this variable is optimized out at the cost of
compilation time and compiler memory consumption.
So I decided to turn it off for entire hotspot build to reduce memory
footprint/increase compilation speed.
