Hi, I just looked some time at the code but I think I just didn't get the usage of STACK_WIND / STACK_UNWIND right. Looking at the macros and the translators (for example), STACK_WIND simply seems to setup some datastructures and then call the suplied function. After that function is done, the MACRO is done and code executions continues normal. So if I put a STACK_WIND into a loop (like in unify) the function passed in the MACRO is simply called. So the calls don't happen in parallel but normal seriazliezd, as they would have happened without using STACK_WIND. So what is STACK_WIND all about - for me it currently seems to be for passing (some common) data between function calls. It doesn't execute any functions in parallel in order to reduce latencies caused by the backends? The function call in the STACK_UNWIND macro puzzles me even more. What is this for? As the STACK_UNWIND function is called from within the function called by STACK_WIND, I'd suspect some kind of loop? What's about with the while(0) inside the macros. They don't do anything? ;) Thanks for any clarifications :) Corin
