Almost the same as where, though we only have Blade 1000s and no cool XVR
cards, just old Creator 3D ones. ;(

Not the latest and greatst but.. Forte generates a bit better code.
(by the way gcc 2.95 is better than gcc 3.1 / 3.2)  

The 3D patch haven't had any progress I'm afraid though, no access to
a XVR card, and the experiment so far have not for some reason met the
preformance expectations.
