Well, as the person who proposed the -Wdisabled-optimization warning, let me say that I'm proposing that it *not* be invoked by any "group" warning flag like -Wall. You don't claim that it is, but readers might (reasonably, but falsely) infer that from what you wrote. I'd just like to have this optimization information so I can change the generated C code I'm handing to gcc if I have to. Brad Lucier
