                2. LOC_REFERENCE with smallest offset (i386 only)

                4. LOC_REFERENCE with most complexity (non-i386 only)
                5. LOC_REGISTER with most complexity
                6. LOC_REGISTER with least complexity
              For the moment we only look at the first parameter field. Combining it
              with multiple parameter fields will make things a lot complexer (PFV)

              The reason for the difference regarding complexity ordering
              between LOC_REFERENCE and LOC_REGISTER is mainly for calls:
              we first want to treat the LOC_REFERENCE destinations whose
              calculation does not require a call, because their location
              may contain registers which might otherwise have to be saved
              if a call has to be evaluated first. The calculated value is
              stored on the stack and will thus no longer occupy any
              register.

              Similarly, for the register parameters we first want to
              evaluate the calls, because otherwise the already loaded
              register parameters will have to be saved so the intermediate
              call can be evaluated (JM) }

              This allows exponential grow of the code only to a certain limit.

              Remarks
               - The current approach calculates the inlining level top down, so outer call nodes (nodes closer to the leaf) might not be inlined
                 if the max. complexity is reached. This is done because it makes the implementation easier and because
                 there might be situations were it is more beneficial to inline inner nodes and do the calls to the outer nodes
                 if the outer nodes are in a seldomly used code path
               - The code avoids to use functions from the math unit
