Thanks for the information.  It is nice to hear.  Sun always provided very 
good compilers.  In 10 years of working with Sun compilers, I only found one 
case of bad code generation ...  and that was a *very* long time ago.   The 
only problem is that they generally charge for their software, which is, of 
course, normal. :-)
