That means you traded a visible compile time error for a possible silent run-time error. That sounds like a poor trade off to me. I'm not objecting to the change though, I'm just suggesting that more work needs to be done here. We need to check whether this can cause mis-optimization, and if so, fix it. -- Jim Wilson, GNU Tools Support, http://www.SpecifixInc.com
