I believe it does not. > But I suspect that Torbajorn's code compiles down smaller, which > is likely to be helpful to the folk that actually need it. I think both size and speed are important, but, yes, size is an issue. I would certainly expect that many embedded users would want to be able to disable rounding-mode and/or exception support to save code size, although there are probably also users that would make use of support for these features. -- Mark Mitchell CodeSourcery, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] (916) 791-8304
