No, they aren't!  Please don't check that change in,
I didn't mean for you to.

My concern was that it was such a simple change
and it had such a negative effect.  It was an easily
isolatable test case.  I just wanted to see if it rang
any bells.  I'll see if I can track it down with
the Pentium code generator guys.

As for the paperwork, please help me through this.
I'm unclear as to what I have to do and I'm more
than willing to do it.

thanks,


Chris
