Hey Kenneth!

With the "-Os -march=pentium3 -D_REENTRANT" optimizations added to
Makefile.micro (perl-5.8.7) and a 'make -j3 -f Makefile.micro' I get the
following results;

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 611364 2006-01-11 09:55 microperl-gcc-4.0.2*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 605760 2006-01-11 09:51 microperl-gcc-4.1*

So far so good but I haven't taken the 4.1 microperl out for a cruise yet. 
I'll benchmark it against the 4.0.2 one as I already know that one works
excellent.  Seems to me that 4.1 compiles faster but I am not positve about that.
 More testing is needed but offhand it looks like 4.1 is a keeper. 

Life is good,
Maurice
