Hey y'all,
  Quick question (hopefully). Which compiler is preferable for compiling
some ANSI C benchmarking code my YDL system? The YDL cd's came with
gnu 2.9x and I've got gcc 3.0 on my box now. Will these use the altivec
properties of the G4, or do I still need to go to www.altivec.org to get
their version of gcc?
  Related to this, is there a manual or FAQ floating around that is
current on how to compile code for the G4 under linux that uses the
Altivec extensions? Thanks.....
