Just an early warning.
We are seeing (possible) miscompilation of KDE 3.4.0's cssstyleselector.cpp
on i386-linux, a regression between 20050330 (where it worked) and 20050403.
The resulting assembly with 20050403+ is also ~ 17% bigger.
There are no differences in *.generic dump, but already in *.gimple
dump the difference is huge.
We'll keep looking into this.
