SubjectRe: Problem compiling 2.1.111,112 on Alpha/RH5.1

Out of interested, can to tell me if there is any noticeable speed
difference in buffer cache access between 2.0.x and 2.1.x on the
alpha? (hdparm -T /dev/sda or something similar should be fine, run
it a few times and ignore the first run).

I'm seeing 2.1.x as being about 15% slower which seems a little odd.

No idea, I don't follow egcs/gcc anymore. It can't hurt to report it.
I think later compilers don't suffer from this so badly, but that
might be because of an unrelated fix.
