Hi,

I'm just wondering if the -mmultiple people actually test if -mmultiple
increases performance on their CPU... because this enables the use of
load multiple word from my understanding and this instruction might be
quite expensive depending on the CPU implementation.

-fsigned-char is the not the default?
