I'll have to check that out and compare with the athlon-{m,x}p changes in
my tree.

I do know that compiling XFree86 with a June 2002 GCC 3.1.1 prerelease
works fine on AMD x86-64 running SuSE with -O2 and -march specifying the

IMO going to 3.3 would be much better -- we can actually get our needs
better addressed as the compiler is still in development, but about to
head into code slush. We cannot affect GCC 3.2.1 too much due to it
being on a release branch, and point release.
