------- Additional Comments From adah at netstd dot com 2005-02-03 03:42 ------- I want to emphasize here again one principle of C and C++: Trust the programmers, and allow them to do low-level tunings for performance. Or what is the purpose of C++ (when compared with "high-level" languages like Python)? This "fix" rid the programmers of their right to choose the way they want.
Unless the future C++ standard demands protection in such cases, I do not think the compiler-provided mechanism a good idea. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13684
