Until somebody compiles the changed code with a real compiler and measures no significant difference in performance, we don't know that there isn't one.  (I'd be surprised as well if there were a difference in this case, of course, but the parser is quite the stressful case for C++ compilers and some innocuous-looking changes have turned out to matter.)  Is anybody benchmarking the effects of Michael's unconditional workarounds in f18's performance, or planning to do so?
