I doubt it matters too much compared to the cost of the compiler, but having them in their own rule makes it easier to follow, I think. > I also considered piping into the compiler's stdin directly which I know > works for GCC (and _probably_ Clang) but I opted against it because I'm > not sure it's portable for other compilers. Maybe it's alright for this > to be less portable since it's a developer target? Yeah, I'd worry slightly about portability. But it would be nice to avoid generating more cruft. And I agree that most people running this would be developers. Maybe it would make sense to float a separate patch on top (that would make it easy to revert if somebody runs into a problem). Thanks for working on this (and the whole series looks good, including the commit message changes you made regarding the bitmap code). -Peff
