Hi -
I am a bit surprised by the subject patch (commit fd6324c). Amongst
its effects is to always include these lookup tables in a generated
object code, if any other part of aux_syscalls is being called.
Algorithmically, it replaces a linear sequence of script if/thens with
a C linear search.
What aspect of the previous code did you deem unacceptable? Why not
just use ordinary script-level lookup tables instead of yet more C
code?
