Is there a way to enable such exotic codegen for 32bit environments?
With libgcc-math you didn't have exotic instructions, but you had
trascendental operations compiled with -mfpmath=sse and with a special
ABI. -mfpmath=sse won about 8% over -mfpmath=387 for tramp3d, which
does have trascendental operations.
Let's see what happens for 4.3.
