>From the codes I visited, the impact on the real world programs depends on the heuristics set. For the current heuristics, it is hard to image this patch would affect real world programs much since it wouldn't specialization a function with a given argument when the number of possible constants is bigger than 3. I think it would take a long time to tune the heuristics and the cost model may be changing during the evolution process.
