You can rely on me to have hardware that finds bugs!

It seems that GCC 4.1 uses fxsave on some Athlons (including
mine) and this combines with another GCC bug so when a program
is compiled with -ffast-math, then things may start segmentation
fault-ing.  Read more at

To fix this, I added to the recipe the patch mailed to gcc's list in
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-03/msg01179.html

Is it OK to include this in the Gobolinux recipe, please?

By following the thread, it seems like it should be kept inside the
i686 subdir only in the recipe, by following Andrew Pinski's
discussion. I'm just afraid as I don't know whether this patch will
hurt other x86 machines or not.

Could someone else review or test it, please?
