GNU superoptimiser

   (GSO) A function sequence generator that uses an exhaustive
   generate-and-test approach to find the shortest instruction
   sequence for a given function.  Written by Torbjorn Granlund
   <[email protected]> and Tom Wood.  You have to tell the
   superoptimiser which function and which {CPU} you want to get
   code for.  This is useful for compiler writers.

   FTP superopt-2.2.tar.Z from a {GNU archive site}.

   Generates code for {DEC} {Alpha}, {SPARC}, {Intel 80386},
   {88000}, {RS/6000}, {68000}, {29000} and {Pyramid} (SP, AP and
   XP).
