First, I'm sorry to have posted on both ml, I just figured the gcc ml may be more relevant to my question. Second, it's not really _important_, it's more out of curiosity. Actually, it's for a teaching I'm doing. We make the student compile a C source code into MIPS assembly language, and make them study it. The C code contains a while loop and a if condition, and gcc generates labels for them. As I said, the labelling begins at 2, and I was wondering why, because students will certainly ask the same question, and I would like to able to answer them :)
