RFA: patch - tuning gcc for Intel Nocona (64 bit).


 The following patch tunes gcc to Nocona Xeon.  The SPEC2000
results for mainline gcc for 2.8Ghz Nocona Xeon in 64-bit mode (using
x86_64 insns) are given below.

 SPECFP2000 is 28% faster with the tuning.  SPECInt2000 is 0.6%
faster.  The code size (text segment) is also usually smaller.

 IMHO, there are still other possibilities to tune the code for
Nocona.  These ones are only the simplest ones.

 I see one problem what tunning will be the default for x86_64.  I
don't think that e.g. Linux distributions will have different code for
Intel Nocona and AMD Opteron.
