Yes. I am reading "SIMD programming manual" by Paul Cockshott and
Kenneth Renfrew (Springer 2004) where those authors propose exactly
what I am proposing here.

Ignorance is widespread in this group, and that, combined with a desire
to attack anything I say because I am not "GNU" makes for discussions
like the one we are having: People that like to piss around, making
short ironical sentences like you do, without ever trying to understand
what I am proposing, nor reflecting about the fact that gcc is unable to
parallelize automatically a simple construct like the one I presented.

Why bother with facts?

Just tell the guy:

That isn't really an answer to the question.

I wasn't being ironical, or pissing around.  I was asking
a serious, non-rhetorical question that was intended to
further the conversation.  Can you see the difference
between those two kinds of behaviors?

I don't know how you are in person, but based on how you
act in the newsgroup I believe you would be described as
a narcissist.  As long as you act like a narcissist it
will be difficult to get people to take your proposals
seriously, regardless of any technical merit they might have.
