[Bf-committers] compiling using Open64 on Bulldozer cpus

[Mike Erwin]

I've just got started with Bulldozer, and have only used the familiar
gcc & scons. Clean build took about one minute! This is probably old
news to many of you, but for me coming from 20-minute build times on
the trusty PowerBook, it's a very welcome change. In answer to your
question, no Open64 yet, but I will try it soon and would also like to
hear other folks' results.
