I don't either. I'm seeing:

timer_stats_update_stats: timer_stats_update_stats:
pushl %edi <
leal 8(%esp), %edi <
andl $-16, %esp <
pushl -4(%edi) <
pushl %ebp pushl %ebp
movl %esp, %ebp movl %esp, %ebp
pushl %edi | andl $-16, %esp
pushl %esi | subl $112, %esp
pushl %ebx | movl %ebx, 100(%esp)
subl $108, %esp | movl %esi, 104(%esp)
> movl %edi, 108(%esp)
call mcount call mcount

where the only difference is -mtune=generic. I'm investigating.

Andrew.
