Here you are: built on cygwin; seems ok.

Tho i've hit something:

Internal compiler error: Error reporting routines re-entered.
Please submit a full bug report,

That rtrace.gcda file was from a previous 3.4.0 pgo run and while i've never told gcc to use it on that compile it read it and choked to death.
A symptomatic cure was to remove the offending files.
Dunno if it's a known bug.


Note that proper pgo runs seem ok but i can't really say because as usual on that platform when using SSE the final bin blows and i can't be arsed to check that particular bin and do the usual combination of ad hoc stack fixing and/or symbol/constant hunting etc...
[ yes, i'm ranting a bit but while i really like to use gcc and once you kludge around those issues it's way faster than the competition, i'm wasting hours fixing things each time i dare to change a compilation switch ]


Also i haven't checked yet if the codegen problem related to _mm_load/store_si128 is still there.
