Thanks. Diffstat says the r228974 version is 104 lines less, so it's not obvious at *that* level and likely looks like an improvement except for the breakage and stretched jumptables. I'll open a proper bug-report soonish when less rushed. JFTR, it's worthwhile to check that we're not missing something that takes care of "all else equal, keep the target close to the jumptable". If we do miss that, that's an obvious enhancement more or less for all targets. If we already have that, there's likely a bug. brgds, H-P
