Several of the output_mi_thunk routines essentially run a mini-compilation of a small function. They generate a series of insns, then call final(). Setting reload_completed directs the move expanders to make the right decisions in this limited case. If you remove no_new_pseudos elsewhere in the compiler, you can remove the setting and clearing of no_new_pseudos from *_output_mi_thunk without fear. Ian
