I do know what you do! You annoy me :-p

OK, mister smarty pants. How do you implement your proposed
overflow detection scheme on the Itanium?

http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/manual/itanium-architecture-vol-1-2-3-4-reference-set-manual.pdf

IMO, writing a compiler targeting a few arches does not make
one qualified to dismiss 30 years of engineering compromises
by WG14 et al. Especially if one doesn't offer an honest
assessment of the pros and cons of one's proposal.

There's something about the way you express irony that cracks
me up (most of the time). I guess that's why I can't keep you
in my KF.
