I've lived most of my life on SPARC, I had no idea gcc/egcs on x86 has
such serious problems. As for my network simulator, things can only get
better :-)

I am downloading pgcc1.1a as I write; thanks to everybody for the
plethora of options I've been flooded with :-). The next report will have
all three mighty compilers side by side, with those options on.

Perhaps I can help (hopefully nobody's laughing) with the evaluation of
the mods to be introduced in the x86 scheduler; I think my app has the
attributes required for a good scheduler meter, and it doesn't use
controversial semantics (templates, exceptions).

Cheers,
Alex
