A test program.
min2 performs a very strict checking.
min3 gives you full control, but checks for too small target type.
Do anybody see any flaws? Any improvements?
For compiler folks: Why GCC compiles ...f(1);f(1);f(1)... to
...
pushl $1
call f
addl $32,%esp <-- My grandma optimizes better
addl $-12,%esp <-- ?
pushl $1
call f
addl $16,%esp <-- ?
addl $-12,%esp <-- ?
...
