hi all:
yes I think you are correct in that too, ok.
About your time/effort paradigm.
Let me tell you something if you allow me: here in my country I was talking with another co partner, here, we have this kind of thinking : "you don't need to be talented, you just need to work hard", and certainly I have read lot of times perhaps that the harder things are, more worth they are.
Certainly both of them are surely right, but let me tell you what a "neuro linguist" programmer says about that (I don't remember his name though he gives international conferences): "most of people think that the harder you work the more work you get done, but I tell you something is better to work intelligently than harder, if you are intelligent worker you get things done and are more worth the value, this is a paradigm you need to work your entire life to get something done and you realize how much trouble you can get solve if you are smarter than hard worker".
I think also is true, the last point I mean, why we should spend the all night reading other people's code, even if they are worth, we should be better than that. My point is this, ok let's do some hard work in an intelligent way, we will be smarter than others by following the smarter things they had on harder things, but doing hard work on it if you don't need that last thing then you have a point.
Then now, in this thing, let's be clear IA prominent guys are working towards making and u turn (maybe just and an "ear" turn here we say too). If I interpret this guys well, without too much knowledge of the ideas I do now something; at some point they should be going a little backwards to start over from where they went to work in fields that are not worth today, you see, a lot of work doesn't imply worth results even if finished, but intelligent work even if not absolutely complete is more worth the value than those they did.
So I was reading a Computer magazine, March 1982, a local copy courtesy of somebody here. And what where doing Japanese Fifth Computer Generation Computer Systems plans at those days, planning the according following next decade of computing, the computers fifth generation FGCS.
Basically what they were trying to do in order to do the major tasks, to build a complete framework up to a complete stack of technology in some of its subtasks (I know, but why should we worry if others are working nicely on the other parts, tell me if so): technology systematization, which compromised the following points:
"Specifically this involve:
(1) Modular programming and verification technology
(2) A theory to specify description and program synthesis
(3) A system for program synthesis, and program verfication and a program base
(4) A system to maintain, improve and manage programs
(5) A consultant system for program design
"

[1] Treleaven and Lima, “Japan's Fifth Generation Computer Systems,” Computer, vol. 15, no. 8, pp. 79-88, 1982.
Basically they wanted to build automatic language translators for languages like japanese to english, etc, a system to receive speech, and system to retrieve images. They main problem was that when arrived in the next decade they didn't get the expected rate or objective of efficiency was:
1-10 BIPS with a computer of 1G-10G of memory = (though first goal was 1200'000.000 logical inferences per second, LIPS. 1 LIPS = [100..300] MIPS) = 400 000 MIPS and in full goal = 333'333.333 LIPS
however they got was for first goal:
30.000 LIPS = 100 MIPS.
The long term goal was not achieved but because of technical problem in the theory and semantic of concurrent languages.
You can read about this on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_generation_computer
and:
http://books.google.com/books?id=BlRrHHpoxLgC&lpg=PA14&ots=ArxnlvBiyx&dq=inference%20machine%20-learning&pg=PA15#v=onepage&q&f=false
But for the long term project was getting just 200 000 LIPS < 700 MIPS
Obviously this is not god like 100 times slower than thought, so they stopped funding the project and continue a sequel in another one.
And NEC was one of the participants, precisely they wrote back in 1995 a bayesian algorithm in Modula-3, looking for a chess contest (see
http://www.nzdl.org/gsdlmod?e=d-00000-00---off-0tcc--00-0----0-10-0---0---0direct-10---4-------0-1l--11-en-50---20-about---00-0-1-00-0-0-11-1-0utfZz-8-10-0-0-11-1-0utfZz-8-00&a=d&c=tcc&cl=CL2.5&d=HASH01ddef928d9edae8cb47030b.5)
Surely you are worried about this kind of issues, but I tell you I think we have a point if so, there are good opportunities they are just waiting for us and good looking for good chance of making it.
Thanks in advance

libcpp is part of any gcc frontend/backend. I have reduced it significantly, but it is still there.
Maybe it was caused by this:
2010-12-26 18:50 jkrell
* m3-sys/m3cc/src/clean_marker.txt:
system.h: all systems have:
stddef.h
limits.h
abort
realloc
...
anyway, I made a change that should resolve this. Let me know.
I'll try to keep up with Hudson, but things have changed
semi-permanently very significantly for me..less time on Modula-3 probably forever now...
(I'll still try to fix the jumpbuf over-use and maybe stack-walker absence...)
