What's your opinion on this? The last round I posted (and what you have in pu) is about as good as this technique is going to get. So it is really a taste thing. On the one hand, I really like that it is not just papering over the problem, but rather giving the compiler more data to do its analysis. On the other hand, it makes the source kind of ugly. I don't think there's a rush on it, but I'm just sifting through my half-done topics. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
