Thanks for your help so far (I'm experimenting with the peephole optimizer - hence my question before as I was trying to work out how to know what the small integer hard-coded offsets should be when looking ahead in the bytecode).

I've successfully added a new opcode (generated by the optimizer and understood by the interpreter loop) but when adding a second I unexpectedly got the following error. I'm not doing anything different to what I did with the first opcode as far as I can tell (I have a TARGET(FOO) in ceval.c and have obviously defined the new opcode's value in opcode.h).


"""
./python -E -S -m sysconfig --generate-posix-vars ;\
        if test $? -ne 0 ; then \
                echo "generate-posix-vars failed" ; \
                rm -f ./pybuilddir.txt ; \
                exit 1 ; \
        fi

If I #ifdef out the code in peephole.c which generates my new (2nd) opcode, then the error does not occur. I tried a "make clean" first, but that didn't help (I realise that does not necessarily rule out a makefile dependency issue).

Does anyone know if this is a well-known symptom of forgetting to add something somewhere when adding a new opcode, or do I need to track it down some more myself? I did not have this problem when introducing my first new opcode.

Thanks, E.
