I know that there is a patent concern (Microsoft has patented one approach to thunks, one that both Per Bothner and I apparently independently "invented" but a bit different from the one g++ now uses), but it is work-aroundable. I think that any claim of a performance concern should be backed up by benchmarks. > I don't think we want to burn a lot of time on thunks if there's a reasonable > chance the C++ ABI will take a different direction. I assume that this would be an ABI for Intel-like hardware? (I can't imagine an unqualified ABI for all platforms, I think it is too early).
