Much better compilers, you might add, and much higher confidence about
what the generated code will or will not do.  Also note that GCC 2.8.1
is hopelessly buggy in its C++ compiler.

Anyway, this is not a forum for discussing programming language
preferences, this is a forum where people report problems and want
them solved.  For the solution to be efficient, it is better to post
all the relevant information when you describe the problem.
