Thanks! I got a bit mystified by: $ gcc -fdump-passes test.c cc1: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-fdump-passes’ but it turns out I'm still stuck on 4.6.0 (though that's a restriction I've imposed on myself), and that you added it in 4.7, if I'm reading the history right: http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?view=revision&revision=174930 FWIW, the analagous python code I used to generate my tables of passes is here: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=gcc-python-plugin.git;a=blob;f=generate-tables-of-passes-rst.py I don't know if it's sane in 4.6 to expose the "is_on" and "is_really_on" booleans as (readonly) attributes of the Python gcc.Pass objects; there seem to have been a lot of cleanups to that code in 4.7 [snip] Dave
