...ng that we have a magic bullet for passing semantic info from the FE to some passes. * As you mention, this is probably the tip of the iceberg. Maybe we should explore it a bit more with the tools we have before declaring them insufficient. Duncan is working on fp precision, you can probably add a no_frame_pointer metadata to functions and from there we will have a better idea of how things are going. Cheers, Rafael

Hi, Link-Time Optimization has a problem. We need to preserve some of the flags with which the modules were compiled so that the semantics of the resulting program are correct. For example, a module compiled with `-msoft-float' should use library calls for floating point. And that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
