Haifa is only enabled by default on the HPPA right now; we'll be enabling
it by default for more targets after the first release.

To enable haifa on other targets you need to configure with --enable-haifa.

The Haifa scheduler will probably help the PA, Alpha & rs6000/ppc; other
ports will likely need to be re-tuned for Haifa.

Sorry, I don't know what flags you should use for optimal UltraSparc
performance.
