Re: top stack (l)users for 2.5.67

[Jörn Engel]

2.5 seems to be getting some driver care, lately. Compared to 2.5.64,
far less drivers were removed after make allyesconfig.

Again, all functions using >1k stack frame on i386.

44 functions for .67, .64 still had 51, things are getting better here
as well.

Is intermezzo still actively maintained? I submitted patches for those
two presto-functions several weeks ago and didn't notice any feedback.
