Changed paths: M embed.fnc M proto.h M sv.c M sv_inline.h Log Message: ----------- Perl_newRV_noinc - explicitly simplify, convert to inline func Perl_newRV_noinc creates a new SVt_IV, then calls sv_setrv_noinc, which will check if the SVt_IV is SvTHINKFIRST (it won't be) and if it is types other than SVt_IV (it won't be). If those checks and associated branches are removed, all that remains is some flag twiddling and setting the sv_u.svu_rv pointer. A decent compiler *might* figure that all out and simplify Perl_newRV_noinc right down to the essentials, but if we do that directly, the entire function is small enough to move to sv_inline.h
