Great! I seem to remember it was killed (and I would say you killed it but I may be wrong.) I'll investigate. Assuming the extension was gone, do you see a reason we not move the default arguments to FUNCTION_DECLs and have FUNCTION_TYPEs use TREE_VEC instead of TREE_LIST to hold the parameter-type list? -- Gaby
