This should be done using an attribute, yes. If this is going to be tested frequently enough, it would make sense to add a bit to struct tree_function_decl (I don't see any reason to put it in struct tree_decl-common) (there is currently room for one more bit in tree_function_decl on a machine which requires 16-bit alignment, or 17 more bits on a machine which requires 32-bit alignment). Note that it is also possible to simply store the attribute on DECL_ATTRIBUTES and look it up using lookup_attribute. Ian
