One version of binutils had a bug where it would put junk at the end of assembly language files. I think it was 2.9.5 I upgraded to avoid that problem, and to be able to easily use the new instricutions. > options: > 1. don't use movnti > 2. make it configurable > 3. shut up and update binutils :-) Currently this code is set to only be used on a P4. We are writing code in assembly. Not having tools that work on the machine is a royal pain, so I figure updating binutils is worth it.
