Slackware64 - GCC 4.6

The link below has GCC 4.6 packages for Slackware 13.1 or 13.37. I have tested the C compiler with building kernel 2.6.37 - 3.0 successfully. This new compiler has optimization support for Core i7 and Core i7 AVX supported by Sandy Bridge and future AVX enabled processors. There is also support for several other architectures. GCC 4.6 - x86_64 GCC 4.6 - x86 GLIBC 2.14 - x86_64 GLIBC 2.14 - x86 GCC 4.6 Changes I put together a kernel patch that adds CPU optimization options in menuconfig for the following processors: AMD Barcelona - march=barcelona AMD Bobcat - march=btver1 Intel Core i7 - march=corei7 Intel Core i7 AVX - march=corei7-avx Kernel 2.6.37-38 Patch Kernel 3.0.0-rc5 Patch
