I dunnoh. To me, once you turn on those "-O" flags I kind of expect the resultant program to be the minimum of code and data to do the job. Anything else would be a surprise. Now, it is a bit surprising if the data gets left out even without turning on optimizations. Understandable, but surprising. - --Chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHOVHzOagjPOywMBARAoKVAKDcLhAV2skFhb3fRV4+ASEhAwxtlwCgvI4W eVtyxK2YKhTAMyIsrqh3PLw= =XTMQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-lpsg
