Indeed, I'm considering the option of inserting yields.  Yet, I have
not done such a thing before, and cannot estimate how much it will
disturb the rest of the code.  Thus, I would prefer an automatic way.

Nicolas.

P.S.: Process-yield appears to be rather fast, so I guess I could do
without macrology.
