I doubt that this run as you say. It is a possibility but I doubt. A compiler is a translator for normal languague to assambler and they would translate code "as is", I mean, where a call is done, a call must be translate (who is a compiler to take that kind of decisions? maybe a programmer would like to reduce the file size and not code speed, or are there any kind of compiler option to do this?) Sorry if I haven't understood before, but It sound me so ilogic that it was difficult for me to imagine what you are explained now.
