I have some preliminary results from compiling with gcc 4.3.

All just compiled with just "./configure ; make", now timings yet.
I belive that most of the size gain is from the changed visibility of
anonnamespace functions. They are now treated more like the good old
trad "statics".
I'll post some timing stats when I have them.
