	Don't enable any of gcc's warnings.

 --low-level-debug

	Enable low-level debugging of the C code. Useful only
	for Mercury system developers.

 -g, --c-debug

	Generate object files that can debugged with C debuggers
	such as gdb.

 --no-c-optimize

	Disable optimization by the C compiler.

 --inline-alloc

	Inline calls to the memory allocator.

 --split-c-files

	This option must be specified if the argument C files were
	generated by the Mercury compiler with --split-c-files.

GRADE OPTIONS

 -s <grade>, --grade <grade>

 --target {il, c, java, asm}

 --il

 --asm-labels

 --gcc-non-local-gotos

 --gcc-global-registers

 -H, --high-level-code

 --parallel

 --gc {conservative, accurate, none}

 -p, --profiling

 --profile-calls

 --profile-time

 --profile-memory

 --use-trail

DESCRIPTION

This runs gcc with the appropriate options for compiling Mercury programs. Normally it invokes gcc in ANSI mode with almost all warnings enabled, but this can be changed using the `--no-ansi' or `--no-check' options.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

MERCURY_C_INCL_DIR, MERCURY_ALL_C_INCL_DIRS, MERCURY_DEFAULT_GRADE.
