------- Additional Comments From austern at apple dot com 2004-12-18 01:17 ------- The code in the C front end that handles this is in finish_decl, in c-decl.c: if (TREE_CODE (decl) == FUNCTION_DECL && asmspec) { if (DECL_BUILT_IN_CLASS (decl) == BUILT_IN_NORMAL) { tree builtin = built_in_decls [DECL_FUNCTION_CODE (decl)]; set_user_assembler_name (builtin, asmspec); if (DECL_FUNCTION_CODE (decl) == BUILT_IN_MEMCPY) init_block_move_fn (asmspec); else if (DECL_FUNCTION_CODE (decl) == BUILT_IN_MEMSET) init_block_clear_fn (asmspec); } set_user_assembler_name (decl, asmspec); }
