No, please don't introduce new users of NOVOPS (it's a quite broken hack - it's sth like a 'const' function with side-effects so we should have instead used 'const' and some kind of volatile flag). We're not using NOVOPS much and that's good (I think handling of such function calls are somewhat broken). Richard.
