I really, really don't think these fixes will help -O2. I need to do
more testing with GCC 3.0, but I do have [some] hope.

I was going to do it Friday, but the distribution file had yet to make it
to any of the mirror sites. It probably has by now. So I'll do it
Monday. GCC 2.95.3 will hi 4-STABLE after April 1st. Heck, April 1st
might actually be the best day to do it. So if RELENG_4 is unfrozen by
then, that's when I'll MFC it. ;)
