Re: [patch by Michael Matz] Re: archer gdb and gcc 4.1 global namespaceDIE
Pure paranoia that the compiler might not optimize this to the separate
instructions (and in that case I would feel the call overhead in this
presumably not-too-cold code path to be too large). I have that paranoia
even though I'm a compiler engineer. Or maybe because of it :)
Totally understandable. I dont trust debuggers the way I used to :)
It's probably better to use strcmp anyway, right ;)
Okay I have used strcmp and pulled the patch into my branch:
1c9be9e4055903bca3fc335189139b67ddb3cdd8
I will will test it with gcc 44 just to be sure. Then I will cherry it
to archer-jankratochvil-fedora-merge.
Thanks for the patch. Please let us know of bugs you find. I am
personally interested in these expression evaluation bugs.
