+==================== Branch work230, patch #2 ====================
+
+Use vector pair load/store for memcpy with -mcpu=future
+
+In the development for the power10 processor, GCC did not enable using the load
+vector pair and store vector pair instructions when optimizing things like
+memory copy.  This patch enables using those instructions if -mcpu=future is
+used.
+
+I have tested these patches on both big endian and little endian PowerPC
+servers, with no regressions.  Can I check these patchs into the trunk?
