No, the CONVF_cxx_hashmap is used by default if found. > /* NOTE if HAVE_CXX_HASHMAP is not set, even with CONVF_cxx_hashmap > string lists will be used */ > size_t converter_descriptor = new_converter (format, CONVF_cxx_hashmap); > /* > To use a string list.

They probably do not mess that much the timing, but still this should not happen. Strangely I have not seen that when comparing texi2any and teximakehtml output, but it may have changed. I'll fix that. -- Pat
