Uninformative, mostly a useless assembly listing, and not generally considered metaprogramming -- it would only be metaprogramming in the loosest possible sense of the word. The way a compiler works is described elsewhere, making this article entirely redundant. This might be useful if it actually described how this is metaprogramming (which it isn't), which it doesn't.

  • What's there is just a run-of-the-mill program. Unless someone replaces it with a real example of compiler metaprogramming, delete. Josh Cherry 00:17, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • That's not even a large amount of assembly code. Delete. Radiant! 09:48, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. This article references itself as an example for metaprogramming, but I think the small example given in that article is good enough. There's no need for this one. --Deathphoenix 06:51, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
