Description

By doing this an out-of-line function call may be avoided which could speed up code doing an excessive number of mutations or doing many mutations on the same storage location.

There is also a patch by Joerg Wittenberger (attached) which does inline the test whether the assigned value is in the nursery (I'm not completely sure about this patch - for some irrational reason I don't trust `C_in_stackp`).
