> Are there any circumstances where this produces a larger speedup?

I don't know. *_find_max_char in any case only a part of expensive
functions. Even if it is optimized to zero time, this will most likely
not produce a larger speedup.

> I don't think a 10% improvement on a micro-benchmark is interesting at all (it's basically 0% on any real-world program).

I agree. It is rather a question of purity. In my opinion the function
has become easier (for developer and for compiler).
