Re: Interesting

I can't really see why compilers don't like it much, back when I used to write games for the original PlayStation I wrote a bit of hand crafted MIPS assembly and coding the delay slot was ridiculously simple, you can usually just swap the branch with the last instruction that comes before it. I can't see why that would be difficult for a compiler to do.
