Making GCC faster

There has been a lot of work recently on making GCC output faster code.  But
GCC isn't very fast.  On my slow 750MHz Linux box (which the PIII in it is now
R.I.P), it took a whole night to compile 3.4.3.  On my fast iBook G4 laptop,
to compile just one source file in Perl made me wait long enough for me to start
doing ``tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock ...''.
