Yes, most probably :) Yesterday I downloaded the latest 3.3 snapshot -
I intended to grep for vmrghh and find out how to fix the issue, but
it turned out it was fixed already :)

Do you know what's the status of this in the 3.2.3-frozen tree ? I
tried to figure this out by looking at config/ in cvsweb but I guess
some magic happens there at make dist time ? Well at least I did not
find where config/rs6000 is.

And, thanks a lot Daniel for fixing this. gcc's altivec support works
nicely for me now :)   (well, in 3.3 at least)

Cheers,
