For this to work, there would have to be a gc predefine to indicate "size over speed".

To some extend it exists:
-Os causes cpp to add:
# 1 "<built-in>"
#define __OPTIMIZE_SIZE__ 1

Allowing -Os to have such an effect on data type selection would break things entirely. IMHO, unexpected incompatibilities should not be introduced between .o built with -Os and with -O2.
