As a temporary workaround -- and probably one which would increase performance on newer VAX platforms (if not all of them!) -- can we tell GCC to not generate any of the instructions we emulate, for the default target anyway?Alas, not without changing GCC.
What about, instead of changing the default target, adding a -genericvax flag or something similar which operates along the lines of -m68060 on m68k targets to avoid emulated instructions? Would that be easier to maintain locally, or more acceptable for the GNU people to bring into gcc?
