Yes, but I have yet to have *anyone* post any numbers that show that
using `pgcc' made their system "faster".
I have heard from people that `pgcc' made this system less stable.
`pgcc' is an experimental testing grounds for new IA-32 optimizations.
This implies the code it produces may not be the most robust. Me, I'll
only use a world and kernel built by a released version of GCC.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Like no kidding. Who do you think made that port and maintains it??
Geez.
