4.5 WHOPR is completely broken.  LTO is in better shape but I am not sure if we
can resonably expect it to build mozilla.  However I would be very happy to help
getting WHOPR working for 4.6.

If you can find actual simple examples where -Os is losing size and speed we 
can try
to do something about them.
