This is only true if the compiler is forced to use the ABI, when 
inlining is impossible, or the type being passed is too complex. 
Structs of pods, most compilers do magical things to provided you don't 
actively work against the code gen (virtual methods, dllexports etc), 
too many separate .obj units in C++ etc.
