FWIW, I have been using a self-compiled egcs using i686 as target for my own
use and a CPU-intensive program showed an increase of 50% in speed. It runs a
simulation and produces almost no output until the end so it's probably not
a good benchmark for packages. Still, it seems to make enough of a difference.
