Indeed I was; reading the diff from your first change to current gave
me that misunderstanding, due to the re-order of that section.

Looks great!  Do I presume correctly that you would prefer only
significantly different results, or is a simple "be reasonable" in
order?  For example, a quick and dirty test shows gcc-4.1.2 on Linux
doesn't provide what I would think are notably different results on a
P-III 1 GHz.  Would you rather add those in due to the major compiler
revision difference (and potentially forestall questions) or just
leave them off since they're not much different?
