------- Comment #11 from jakub at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-12-08 13:11 ------- Created an attachment (id=10439) --> (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=10439&action=view) gcc41-pr25293.patch
This patch disallows 16-bit pushes (similarly how x86_64 disallows 16-bit and 32-bit pushes). I don't have an i586 to verify how slow pushw is, but it would surprise me if it was fast. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25023
