"0 ," costs about the same space as "cell allot", so memory constrains
are not the issue.

Yes, that's the typical discussion.

That's not the usual complaint, so why are you mentioning it?
Spin-doctoring?

The usual complaint is about miscompilation from newer versions of the
same compiler.  And the usual defense of the miscompiler maintainers
is that the program has always been broken, and that they are doing
the right thing by miscompiling it.
