Does it seem faster to you? ;-)

I don't know - I haven't tried it myself. I expect it will work.
The previous WinUAE version of rtg.library works on UAE on other platforms
(and in fact cured a problem with P96 and the JIT which was causing mouse
pointer trails to be left on screen).
BTW, if you are using latest the version from CVS then you already have a
bunch of P96 improvements and optimizations. I fixed loads of bugs (including
broken 32-bit modes on big-endian platforms) and the bug that was causing
Installer V43 to crash UAE. Going by what P96Speed tells me, when using SDL
there is speed improvements across the board and notably 3x faster RectFills
and 3x faster Draws.
Cheers,
Rich
