Hi;

One semi-background task that I've been working on is trying to get
the code to run a little faster for the embedded target.  We don't use
a source-level debugger there anyways, why not turn on the optimizer?

Well, one reason is that the code doesn't work if I turn on the
optimizer.  I have tracked the (first of probably several such)
problem down to the "asm" primitives in jjMachine::getCPUID().  When I 
rebuilt everything other than jjmachin.o to use the optimizer, then it 
ran (and perceptibly faster than without the optimizer).

I will look into this more later this weekend.
