In rest_of_reorder_blocks, we avoid reordering if
!optimize_function_for_speed_p. However, we still call
insert_section_bounary_note, which can cause problems because now, if we
have a sequence of HOT-COLD-HOT blocks, the second set of HOT blocks
will end up in the cold section. This causes assembler failures when
using exception handling (subtracting labels from different sections).

Unfortunately, the only way I have of reproducing it is to apply a
67-patch quilt tree backporting the preliminary shrink-wrapping patches
to gcc-4.6; then we get

FAIL: g++.dg/tree-prof/partition2.C compilation,  -Os  -fprofile-use

However, the problem is reasonably obvious. Bootstrapped and currently
testing in the aforementioned 4.6 tree. Ok for trunk after testing there?

* bb-reorder.c (insert_section_boundary_note): Only do it if
	we reordered the blocks; i.e. not if !optimize_function_for_speed_p.

OK after testing.

Thanks,
