Yeah, I think "don't unroll if there are function calls" is the right 
answer.  Inlining first would make unrolling happen in most cases.  We 
can always improve on that later.

I'm not too familiar with the loop analysis/control/unroll split, so it 
wasn't immediately clear to me where to add that.  I suppose I should go 
read Muchnick's book, since I'm pretty sure that's where this came from.
