If it's anything like their reasons for the per-thread exception stack allocation being static, and thus causing additional overhead for non-C++ and non-threads-using programs (i.e., mainly because they already had it implemented that was in egcs when Jeremy Allison made the patches to do it right for gcc when we were making ACAP run for the first time under the GNU tool chain), then you might as well not bother sending them email. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
