I've installed the pgcc port and i've used it sparingly; while i know
that replacing the system binaries with new stuff is usually not a
good idea, i still wondered as to whether, since pgcc claims to be
optimized for the Pentium chip, would there be any significant
improvement if it were made the system default C compiler?
