mmx code, and gcc
GCC, on my SuSE 8.2 system, doesn't allow the use of all registers, most
noticeable the BX register in assembly. In those assembly routines, where
BREG is referenced, it complains and needs to be replaced with direct memory
reference instead. In other cases, such as the mmx code ... it's totally
broken, and I simply disable it. The CPU is Athlon XP.

This issue here is that Suse is distributing a broken Qt that adds -fPIC to
the makefiles where it shouldn't be.

Where does the MMX code make most use, will it make audio more syncable?

Btw, thanks a bundle ... changing that in the Qt default setup is now on its
way.
