Yes, guessing is all we can do because Dave keeps posting these things without providing a proper snipet of compilable code, with compilation options and compiler / libc / binutils versions. Dave, if you want help from the users on this list, you _really_ need to provide some compilable code so that we can actually see what's going on. At high enough compilation (O2, O3, Os) levels it is very hard to track down what the compiler is doing just from some bits of assembly taken out of context... :( -- Paulo Marques Software Development Department - Grupo PIE, S.A.
