Overview

Patternia v0.7.5 is a hotfix release for v0.7.4. It fixes a benchmark registration issue that can fail compilation on MinGW toolchains.

---

What Is Fixed

Benchmark Registration Compatibility (MinGW)

• Replaced apply_stable_variant_profile(BENCHMARK(...)) registration style with direct BENCHMARK(...)->... chained configuration.
• Preserved the same stable variant benchmark profile: nanosecond unit, minimum run time, repetitions, and aggregate-only reporting.

Benchmark Warning Cleanup

• Updated the alternating-hot variant microbench path to avoid the deprecated const-reference DoNotOptimize usage.

---

Impact

• API surface: unchanged.
• Runtime semantics: unchanged.
• Build behavior: benchmark target now compiles on MinGW where v0.7.4 could fail.

---

Implementation Notes

• bench/bench_match_variant.cpp
• Fixed benchmark macro registration pattern for compatibility.
• Kept benchmark profile semantics unchanged.
