+# on that processor, and may not run at all on others.
+#

+# -maltivec enables optional altivec support and should be used

+# the alitvec option compiled into your kernel to take full advantage of this
+# feature. Note: you should also include -mabi=altivec flag if using this
+# option.
+#
+# The newer gcc has a stricter aliasing ruleset that makes type punned
+# expression faulty compiled if -fstrict-aliasing is enabled.
+# That option is implied by -O2 -Os and -O3. Make SURE you don't have that
+# option enabled by adding -fno-strict-aliasing to your CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS
+#
+# Long term testing has shown that -O3 opts can be unreliable on G4's but work

+#
+# PowerPC 750 > up: this works on G3's and G4s, gcc 2.95.3 doesn't make the
