No chance for a fix for this in 4.6.1?
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48600

This has been a critical regression for us, forcing the removal of cold attributes which in turn has reduced performance by a notable amount due to decreased spatial locality.

If cold attributes are a sufficiently obscure feature that doesn't warrant a P1, let me know and I'll set expectations appropriately.

Thanks!

Unlikely.  Honza seems to be busy with LTO right now.
Hopefully it will get fixed in 4.6.2.

It is P2, not P1.  cold attributes aren't used very often, therefore it is
much less tested than more commonly used features.  Try to use __builtin_expect
instead where appropriate for the time being.
