Summary

0004356: Upgrade to GCC 4.4.3

Description

http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/changes.html#4.4.3 [^]
•Support for Intel AES built-in functions and code generation is available via -maes.
•Support for Intel PCLMUL built-in function and code generation is available via -mpclmul.
•Support for Intel AVX built-in functions and code generation is available via -mavx.
•Automatically align the stack for local variables with alignment requirement.
•GCC can now utilize the SVML library for vectorizing calls to a set of C99 functions if -mveclibabi=svml is specified and you link to an SVML ABI compatible library.

Support for __float128 (TFmode) IEEE quad type and corresponding TCmode IEEE complex quad type is available via the soft-fp library on IA-32/IA64 targets. This includes basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, negation, multiplication and division) on __float128 real and TCmode complex values, the full set of IEEE comparisons between __float128 values, conversions to and from float, double and long double floating point types, as well as conversions to and from signed or unsigned integer, signed or unsigned long integer and signed or unsigned quad (TImode, IA64 only) integer types. Additionally, all operations generate the full set of IEEE exceptions and support the full set of IEEE rounding modes.
