I don't have access to another x86_32 machine right now.  I could run
some benchmarks on a reasonably current x86_64 next week.

Suggestions for test samples and more benchmarks welcome.

But for which gcc version was this confirmed to be faster?

Note that I did not consider my set of benchmarks exhaustive, just
a sensible start.
