No i'm not, and i've used a pristine 4.1.0 in
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-03/msg00410.html
I haven't tried that particular testcase on 4.2.x, but some weeks ago
i had to go thru all my code again to put always_inline in some
forgotten places because i was seeing even empty ctors not being
inlined (to the effect of having a call to a ret). So in this regard,
4.1.0 & 4.2.x still exhibit that kind of behaviour.

It seems to trigger when some particular threshold is met, either for
a function or unit, then nothing at all gets inlined but functions
tagged with always_inline; of course major performance regression
ensues.
