When compiling: extern char c2(char); char c1(char c) { return c2(c); } with gcc -Wall -O2 -S tail-char.c using gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20051125 (Red Hat 4.0.2-8) The result is: c1: subq $8, %rsp movsbl %dil,%edi call c2 addq $8, %rsp movsbl %al,%eax ret -- nmiell at comcast dot net changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |nmiell at comcast dot net http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14907
