[IA32] -fschedule-insns and -fschedule-insns2...


I have always been finding that adding the flag -fschedule-insns when
building on IA32/i686 can buy as much as 5% performance improvement in code
execution time.

This page [http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/projects/optimize.html] states
that it is always disabled by the IA32 back-end - what is the current status of
developers' views on it?

I am aware that this an cause register allocation failures at compile-time,
so is that why it is disabled? Also, this must imply that -fschedule-insns2
is disabled, no?

Please CC me on any replies!

Many thanks,
  Dan
