<h2>General Optimizer Improvements</h2>
<ul>

instruction set. Previously the GCC compiler did not adhere to the ABI
for 128-bit vectors with 64-bit integer base types (PR 48857).
This will also be fixed in the GCC 4.6.1 and 4.5.4 releases.</li>
+
+ <li>A new option (<code>-mno-r11)</code> was added to allow AIX
+ 32-bit/64-bit and Linux 64-bit PowerPC users to specify that the
compiler
+ should not load up the chain register (<i>r11</i>) before calling a
+ function through a pointer. If you use this option, you cannot call
+ nested functions through a pointer, or call other languages that might
+ use the static chain.
