You've lost me here. What's your explanation of the meaning of the compiler flag -Os, as in -O*size*? In general of course you are right in size not being the only quality metric of a compiler's output, but right now it's the one most easily compared. More so than speed I value producing *correct* code. Here of course 4.7 might be better than 4.3 even if the program is slightly bigger. In my test application I haven't found a translation problem yet and it runs as expected - obviously that's nowhere near an exhaustive comparison though.
