Hi John,
5. Since several of years there is a new kid around the block in 'free'
compiler land : LLVM http://www.llvm.org/. Basically it is a compile
infrastructure/JIT/code transformer/code analyser/etc of which one of
its usecases is just compile C/C++ with apparently respectful or even
impressive results. The C/C++ frontend is still a bit immature and
not 100% ready for cross-compile purposes but I've already been playing
a bit with it (gccsdk/branches/joty/llvm) to get a better understanding
what this could mean as RISC OS compiler.
Out of curiosity, were you playing with llvm-gcc, which is GCC for the
front-end and LLVM for the back-end, or Clang, their new C/C++/Objective
C/etc. compiler that doesn't use GCC and is aimed at being a faster
compiler, more cleanly implemented?

Cheers,
Ralph.
