Here's what we've found re: egcs so far:

        egcs 1.1.2 on x86 WORKS (with a couple of minor 
        patches we've made since 4.02).  It doesn't yield
        any measurable performance improvement and makes the
        binaries slightly larger. 

        egcs definitely DOES NOT WORK on sparc.  I haven't looked
        into why yet.

Any more data points appreciated...

Cheers,
        Simon
