See the previous discussion about this on the mailinglist.
That's taking the very unrealistic point of view that using nested functions isn't broken. It is, in a great many ways which have already been discussed in depth, and which you've, rather disturbingly, chosen to ignore. Using "features" which require an executable stack is still just a bad idea. It's too bad that the grub project has chosen to ignore the pragmatic implications of code structure and style. -- Peter _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
