I have confirmed this; the patch works.  However, it doesn't have
an effect on 8146.

However, I can confirm that 3.2.1-pre (20021105) builds gcc 2.95.3
successfully if I pass CC="gcc -mcpu=586" (where gcc is 3.2.1-pre) to
2.95.3's configure, and I get the previously reported comparison failures
if I let -mcpu default to i686 (whether or not HJ's patch is applied).
Note that no -O flags of any kind are ever passed to gcc-3.2.1-pre.

HJ, you said that you had a second patch that you believe might address
this problem.  Sorry for re-asking, but could you send a pointer?
