(Or even fold in the patches into /usr/src....) Hmm, what about people, that don't have /usr/src installed ?! I think they want still a working ports mechanism. We shoudn't mix ports collection and /usr/src tree, or ?! Besides that, I don't have a concrete idea, how to bring in the pgcc patches without patching gcc in contrib ... And this is certainly not wanted. Integrating the pentium optimization patches into the default compiler would be an interesting thing. But how do the others think about this ... Would that have a negative impact on stability ?! One big jump to 2.7.2.1 as default compiler has been made ... and now another big one to get Pentium optimized code ?! Hmmmm... If everything would be running fine after hacking gcc I'd say, wow, yes, immediately, nice feature .... since I have a Pentium, too ;) Is there someone, who could fiddle the patches in if the others agree ? What would the task be ?! Simply patching gcc-2.7.2.1 with the pgcc patches and doing a commit after that or trickier ?
