<<And THAT makes me nervous. The fact is that the Linux kernel cares _deeply_ about a lot of "implementation-defined" things, and that isn't likely to change. If the people making optimizations in gcc do not care about the historic meaning of these constructs, that screws the kernel over. >> Let me say once again that what is important is for the Linux kernel folk to clearly document what they are depending on, and the code should also make clear the points at which the code is relying on implemenation defined things (ideally such things should be clearly isolated in the code).
