The patches were submitted at the end of March 97 but nobody was interested. They are still sitting around in the GNATS database (gnu/3157, 97/03/31). I think the patches will still fit to current, because nobody changed the files since then. I am willing to mail the patches to you, then you could install them and use MMX with the assembler and as inline instructions with gcc. But you need FreeBSD-current. I did the patches for 2.2-Stable too, but I use current now and cannot test the old patches. Maybe somebody will install the patches to current ?? Regards Helmut -- Helmut F.
