> Google is your friend... Thanks Jack. As you can see in comment #46 of pr40106, I have found my own way. In my previous attempts I have made two mistakes: (1) I tried to use the search engine of the gcc mailing lists that kept parsing optimize_insn_for_speed_p as if the _ were spaces. (2) I did not realized that the history in only kept in trunk.
> svn blame is your friend, ... When I report a pr I am not interested at all to blame anything or anybody, only to see the pr fixed ASAP;-) Cheers, Dominique PS For the ongoing discussion about the equivalence between sqrt(x) and pow(x, 0.5), I'll only say that some influent people should learn some basic math!
