The part I posted should pretty much be obvious, at least I hope so. I separated it from the next because that will likely be less unanimous. And of course, I posted it in the hope that any silly glitches of mine could be spotted. :-) Other than that: new tests that I (have to) maintain and either I don't understand, or seem maintenance-intensive, or otherwise problematic, certainly don't fall under the obvious rule, if you ask me. FWIW, I have tests lying on my disk for quite a while that I've never submitted, because they would be problematic (this one started some months ago). > This is okay, is not portable with objdump, but that can be dealt > with later, either by limiting the systems the test is run on, or > making the test more portable. Certainly. Thanks for the review! Installed. Cheers, Ralf
