In theory, I suppose, it could be deduced by reading the compiler code. This isn't something I'd want to do, though. I hate to say it, but I guess you'll have to wait for the runtime release. I don't believe a date has been set, but I do know we're working on it as fast as we can. I realize this is an unsatisfying answer. Tom
