Someone just pointed out to me that for machines which have different types of branch instructions (e.g. short and long) which can be used depending on the branch distance, GCC will often generate the long version even when a short branch would do nicely. Is there any general way for GCC to handle this, or is this type of optimization best left to GAS to handle? // Ron Guilmette - MCC - Experimental (parallel) Systems Kit Project // 3500 West Balcones Center Drive, Austin, TX 78759 - (512)338-3740 // ARPA: rfg@mcc.com // UUCP: {rutgers,uunet,gatech,ames,pyramid}!cs.utexas.edu!pp!rfg
