OK, I remembered I had an account on a newer alpha machine (EV6,
666MHz), which has gcc 3.2.

using just -O3 -funroll-loops:
   739957 ANSI Compact 1-pipe
   984842 ANSI Standard 1-pipe *
   166508 ANSI Ultra-Compact 1-pipe
   842660 ANSI Compact 2-pipe
   820702 ANSI Standard 2-pipe
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Standard 1x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Compact 2x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Standard 2x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    AMD64/x86 MMX Compact 1x2-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    AMD64/x86 MMX Standard 1x2-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
Best minter: ANSI Standard 1-pipe (984842 hashes/sec)

using -O3 -funroll-loops -mcpu=ev6 -mtune=ev6:
   737431 ANSI Compact 1-pipe
   934900 ANSI Standard 1-pipe *
   169419 ANSI Ultra-Compact 1-pipe
   889778 ANSI Compact 2-pipe
   800706 ANSI Standard 2-pipe
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Standard 1x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Compact 2x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    PowerPC Altivec Standard 2x4-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    AMD64/x86 MMX Compact 1x2-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
   ---    AMD64/x86 MMX Standard 1x2-pipe  (Not available on this machine)
Best minter: ANSI Standard 1-pipe (934900 hashes/sec)

So there doesn't seem to be much difference between optimization the
flags.  At least now the default is the fastest.
