If you have a testcase in which gcc tries to fill the delay slot and fails even though it could, you've found a bug in gcc, and this bug should be fixed. Wasting time in the assembler trying again to do what gcc should have done is silly. -- Alexandre Oliva Enjoy Guarana', see http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat GCC Developer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} CS PhD student at IC-Unicamp oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist Professional serial bug killer
