It was in H/sysdep.h in csound5 and include/sysdep.h for csound6. It was just used for converting floats to integers. Maybe "optimize" wasn't the best word. I should have said "provide the same functionality for the ARM architecture"

That is only for use with Visual C++ (notoriously slow float/int cast), 
and as I understand it that is no longer supported anyway. So maybe that 
code can simply be removed now?

Ok I thought it was being used for rounding purposes. I can make up the patch if you want. I'm a student and this is part of my project so it's no trouble to me

Ok. I'll just remove the assembly because it isn't necessary according to Richard
