Day #1 TYPE_PRECISION existed, of course. :-) Not very recent either:


1.1 (law 11-Aug-97): #define TYPE_PRECISION(NODE) ((NODE)->type.precision)

So I did not Remember Correctly :-) Maybe it is the usage of TYPE_PRECISION for C bitfields that is recent...

The problem with many Ada bugs is that the tree optimizers have stricter semantics than the expander, and it is not clear where it is that the semantics have changed. This thread is showing that.
