thanks for your replies. I understand adding extra checks makes the compiled code slower, if this cannot be done by the hardware (but the same is probably true for many other runtime checks, like bounds checking, etc.) However, I think it would be very usefull to have such an option for debugging purposes. If anyone finds the time to implement it, it would be highly appreciated. best regards, Jos de Kloe -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32153
