Right. Nowadays these performance options are tried out automatically on platforms where they apply, so if you ask for it explicitly, that is ignored. I have now changed the Makefile to not report this stuff automatically. You can still get a report with gforth --diag gforth-fast --diag I wonder how we should handle the case where there is no FORCE_REG defined for the platform. Should we assume that this platform does not need FORCE_REG (and not warn about it), or that the platform support is lacking (and warn about it). For now I have added another macro FORCE_REG_UNNECESSARY that suppresses the warning for PowerPC. - anton --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
