I did the same, but noticed a 50k increase of the image compared to
the same tree build with gcc 2.7.2.3. I'm not sure about the reasons
yet.
2.7.2.3 options: -O2 -m486 -fno-strength-reduce -malign-loops=2
-malign-functions=2 -malign-jumps=2 -fomit-frame-pointer
egcs options: -O2 -mpentiumpro -fno-strength-reduce -fomit-frame-pointer
