I'll try it on x86 and x86_64 - but need some help with SPEC.

How does your spec file look for SPECcpu?  If I set ONESTEP=1, the
compiler is invoked e.g. as:
/opt/gcc/3.4-devel/bin/gcc                -O2 -march=i686    bits.c deflate.c gzip.c getopt.c inflate.c lzw.c spec.c trees.c unlzh.c unlzw.c unpack.c unzip.c util.c zip.c     -o gzip

But then intermodule does not seem to be used.  If I invoke this by
hand with:

$ /opt/gcc/3.4-devel/bin/gcc                -O2 -march=i686    bits.c deflate.c gzip.c getopt.c inflate.c lzw.c spec.c trees.c unlzh.c unlzw.c unpack.c unzip.c util.c zip.c   -c  -o gzip.o -v

I get the following output and a compilation error:

So, I have these questions:

- Shall I file a bug report for this?

- How do you use it with SPEC?  Please send the appropriate config
  file lines so that I can test it completly.

Cheers,
Andreas
