Indead it _is_. It is _much_. :)

It seems that nobody had free time to give a try to
RosAsm Auto-Compile under ReactOS very last version.

The last one who did it, was James, two releases ago.

At that time, it was hanging in the RosAsm Routines
that are indentifying the Api calls, for encoding the
.Import Section.

If you mean to help, with this, and if you have time,
you could create a mofified version of RosAsm with
simple

HexPrint 0
...
Hexprint 1
...
... and so on, here and there around critical chunks...

To try to point out more exactely at what point it hangs.

At the last news, the hang was inside 'BuildImport', and
i suspect it to be more exactely inside the two Routines
'VerifyModuleWithExtensionExist' / 'VerifyFunctionExist',
that repetitively call to LoadLibrary and to GetProcAddress.

If true, it would be interresting to have some more details
about _how_ it hangs. I mean, maybe this is because of the
fact that the calls are done _repetitively_. And, if true,
(for example, if it would hang with the _second_ call to
LoadLibrary, or something like this...), it would be good
that i could report this to the ReactOS Dev List...
