-O3 -msse3 -ffast-math -march=k8 -mtune=k8 -minline-all-stringops
Different -mpfmath selections were benchmarked:
a) -mfpmath=sse
user 27m33.848s
b) -mfpmath=387
user 27m42.136s
c) -mfpmath=sse,387

* config/i386/i386-protos.h (ix86_expand_trunc): Declare.
Nice to see that there is life in -mfpmath=sse,387 ;) It was faster than
a) and b) by some 6%.
