You just defined better to equal smaller executables.
Perhaps there are other wins?
Like supporting Ada05 and Ada12
Like producing better/more accurate crashdumps
It would help to state OS. And compiler/link flags
And architechture (32/64)
eventhough I guess 32 bit Win xp - or windows 2000.
That is OS on par age-wise wiht 3.15p - Or Win 98 ?
