Andrew, I am not trying to "push" this bugzilla entry, and also do not consider it a bug (even though I find behavior described there to be undesirable). In this case I used it as an example why expecting gcc (and probably any other compiler) to generate ideantical assembly from same source on different OS is unrealistic. Sorry if that was sounding offensive. -- vda
