I expect some thing like this typo occur once in a while.

I am afraid I do not understand what mean here. Argument passing does
not always provide flexibility for all cases specially this one.

I am puzzled here also. I do not see how the combination of my codes

It shoud not be difficult to build gcc-4.2.0 if you have a linux box
and approximately three hours.
