It appears that the performance regression which
I found in the induct polyhedron benchmark in gcc 4.3.1 is
triggered by the use of -ffast-math. Benchmarking induct
compiled with gcc 4.2.4 and 4.3.1 shows....
gcc 4.2.4 gcc 4.3.1
Ave Run Ave Run
-O3 73.57 71.71
-ffast-math -O3 68.27 89.76
This is on i686-apple-darwin9.
