What optimization level do you use? Do you find that the newer version
of egcs does a good job with floating point rounding, or are the
regression tests filled with ".999999" results? I much preferred the
gcc-2.7.x behavior wrt graceful rounding, and hope that at some point
egcs will also have it...
