------- Additional Comments From tobi at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-03-04 11:27 ------- - a simpler compiler - simpler interfacing with C code - less excess precision problems with floating point returns (REAL*4 returns are not returned as REAL*8) - faster executables - we'll never get this if we don't do it now
But if you really like the default the other way round, I'd suggest: - you implement the necessary changes to the library :-) - we discuss this on the mailing list once I submit the patch, so that other people can weigh in as well. I hope to get there today, I have finished the COMPLEX part, and I don't think the REAL part will be difficult. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20178
