One common reason that routines libgo to force a stack split is that
they call a builtin function like memcpy.  This patch compiles libgo
with -minline-all-stringops when available, to force those functions to
be expanded inline on x86.  That will sometimes be slower, but it will
never be as slow as a forced stack split.  Committed to gccgo branch.
