for things like VIS from sun?  i know sun already has a compiler which
does a very very good job of optimizing, so i doubt if sun would build
support into gcc. 

	The GCC infrastructure supports any SIMD/vector-like extensions.
It is up to Sun whether they want to implement the functionality for GCC.

	IBM's Visual Age compilers currently do not produce code for *BSD
or GNU/Linux systems.
