And why would changing the default for VECTORISE_INLINE adversely affect these? I'm trying to understand Frank's statement that "people are bound to stumble over this when they try the released version". Frank, did you mean the soon-to-be (ET_2011_10) released version? Or the previously released version? If we change the default to VECTORISE_INLINE = no now, then no-one will run into this problem in the soon-to-be released version. Since the change to McLachlan didn't exist in the previously released version, it won't affect those.
