Why require seeks? The whole point is that they are extraneous. I'm not proposing to break code that calls seekoff, just to make it properly redundant. I'm experimenting with switching states on any operation that requires it. Overlapping get and put areas are obviously suicide; if that is what you attempted before, then I'm encouraged about remaining alternatives. Outside the context of the closed bug, I'm not proposing anything yet. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45628
