I have "-O2 -fbounds-check" there.  Also I was thinking about adding
-ftree-vectorize but then I remembered that the vectorizer was mostly
useless without -msse or -msse2 or -maltivec for the two major targets.
So adding -ftree-vectorize just makes us waste time. Only on ia64 and
SPU or x86 (with sse turned on by default) or PowerPC (with altivec
turned on by default) will cause -ftree-vectorize do anything.

Thanks,
