This seems wrong: the __chkstk call is not unnecessary, because if you don't do it and then your routine uses more stack than expected, then your program will crash. That is what I would call a buggy compiler, and usually it is not the programmer's wishes. It is you who have different wishes than most programmers, and therefore TinyCC is not a bad compiler. It is just not the compiler you were looking for. HTH, Giovanni. -- Giovanni Mascellani <g.mascell...@gmail.com> Postdoc researcher - Université Libre de Bruxelles
