I was asked to repeat my test with only libc.so, and the kernel compiled for
i686..  these are the results of that build.   Also, to answer a previous
question on the list, the exact options used were:

#COPTS+=-march=i686
#COPTS+=-O2

kernel:
     3064.87 real      2686.33 user       241.35 sys
     2964.37 real      2685.21 user       241.03 sys

./build.sh USETOOLS=never -T /usr/src/tooldir.NetBSD-3.0-i386 distribution
    24571.43 real     19784.32 user      3321.49 sys

In this case, there was a speedup in the kernel build, but no speedup in make
distribution.
