39 but what if we have a too-smart C compiler that actually
40 gets us down to this branch? I suppose that if we have a C
41 compiler that is that smart, we're doomed to miscompile the
42 runtime anyway, so we won't get here. Still, it might be
43 good to have "set -e" in the various scripts so that we can
44 exit with an error here and have it be caught by the build
45 tools. -- CSR, 2002-11-24
