Thanks. Doing this reduces compilation time to about 30s, but unfortunately
my pass is not updated (even though it is compiled). I have to do 'make
stage=2' at the root directory, not inside compiler. This brings compilation
time to 1m10s (which is still better than what I was doing), but I really
don't know what would need building outside the compiler directory...

As an aside, is there any hope of using SYB in the core pass? As a generic
programmer I quickly get tired of traversing the entire AST when I want just
a few changes in specific places...


Thanks,
Pedro
