This corresponds to the -O2 command line switch. The alternative optimization, "Smallest Possible Code', which corresponds to the -O1 switch, doesn't set intrinsic on. My guess is that the jamtools for Borland uses -O1 instead of -O2. The problem is that when you build the test by hand you don't know that you must use -O1 instead of -O2. I think it is better to use the pragma to turn it off than to require users to use -O1.
