Is this on Intel or PowerPC? I have checked PowerPC disassembly, and
JSImmediate is still fully inlined (the intermediate helpers are simply not
present in the object code:

otool -tvV JavaScriptCore | grep JSImmediate | c++filt

I have also checked several call spots to verify that the constants haven't
magically moved to data segment or anything.

> changes to JSImmediate.h between r17372 and r17740

Does reverting this single file to r17372 fix the regression?

I have tried reverting this file and comparing full JavaScriptCore
disassemblies, but that proved difficult - gcc has slightly moved a lot of code
and data for whatever reason. However, I did spend some time comparing them,
and found no smoking gun.
