Pystone(1.1) time for 50000 passes = 1.31
This machine benchmarks at 38167.9 pystones/second

A 7% speed DECREASE??? According to the documentation it should be a 5% 
increase?

The machine is a 3.0 GHz Xeon box.

Both python 2.3 and 2.4 where configure without any options.

For comparison, I do get a decent speedup. Machine is an AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (1.82GHz) running Win XP Pro SP2.

Python 2.3.4: 36393 pystones.
Python 2.4:   39400 pystones.

...about an 8% speedup.
