GWASS has a switch LOW_EA to prevent it producing 68020+ effective addresses and long branches so that it produces the correct code for SMSQE just as Qmac does. However, the possibility exists of having the better 68020+ code for Q40/60 say. An example is the conversion to floating point. This would be much more easily done using GWASS than using Qmac where you would have to use DC.W instructions to produce the code.
