Sorry to be so terse.  Yes the disassemble was for illustration only.
I then ran (compile 'tak) to actually use the code shown by
disassemble and get the compiled timing results.

(!)  Why not try

export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:ext:address@hidden:/cvsroot/gcl
cvs -z9 -q co -r Version_2_6_1 -d gcl-2.6.1 gcl
cd gcl-2.6.1
../configure && make

If you need better ansi support, you can check out the development
branch by omitting the -r Version_2_6_1

Take care,
