Thanks for that - I didn't know about the -no-cpp-precomp or
--disable-most-grades flags. There was one particular grade that
took the vast bulk of the time.

I might even get around to trying it shortly (on MacOSX 10.1 5G27),
or (better) trying out a recent rotd - I believe that sufficient
improvements have gone in (Smart recompilation) to warrant it.

Cheers,
Roy Ward.
