I could be wrong on this, but I was always tought in school that using
"register" keyword made a variable off-limits for optimizations.  Plus
it doesn't even gaurantee that the variable will be stuffed in a register
in the first place; its just a hint.  Have you benchmarked the two
different ways and found a difference?  Less code, more code?  Faster,
slower?
