Including myself. But my way of handling this is doing "nice" code and 
in critical cases after compiling checking the resulting ASM code it the 
result is as desired. If it is not, I consider some hand-optimization. 
(but mostly it is rather perfect.)

Nowadays mostly based in the gnu engine. Thus the high-level 
optimization (including the arch-independent stuff we have been talking 
about here) is the same.

I'd be inclined to use the Oberon "with alias" but I'd never use the 
highly ambiguous original Pascal syntax "naked" "with" syntax.
