Sigh. In other words, I need to do a helluwa lot of work, learning,
hacking, and installing to get this optimization. It's not worth it.
I have already spent far too much time hacking NetBSD to get it to
work at all. I would rather use my time developing applications.

Unless there is a relatively easy way to get and use egcs?
