hi, i noticed FASM multipass mechanism predicts all symbols to be used by default. i understand this probably speeds up compilation a lot, but on other side causes that less valid sources are not compiled.

Here is very basic example:

Code:

if used a
  a = @f
end

as FASM is fast enough already, wouldn't it be wise to predict everything is not used by default?
