GCC LTO merged to trunk

A few weeks ago the lto branch of gcc was merged to trunk, and was subsequently released in gcc 4.5. Why was I not notified?? What's wrong with you /prog/, sleeping on the job?

Also doesn't LTO support in almost all mainstream compilers sort of make the 'inline' keyword obsolete? Why would I bother inlining anything ever?

Sure, it's kinda cool, but you could already do the same thing with -combine -fwhole-program (with a few caveats). Only funrolling ricers cared then and only they care now.

Yes, declaring functions inline is just as useless as declaring variables register.

If a header named in a #include directive is not found, the compiler exits immediately.
Now that's a significant change that will save people some time.
