But why should you have to 'stroke' a compiler to get it to generate good code? Why do you think forcing users to re-write startup code to get good code size is such a nifty thing? What John Toebes said was if you do this, and this, and that, and this, and stand on your head, then we'll produce code comparable to Manx. What he didn't say was with Manx all you say is 'cc prog.c ln prog.o -lc'.
