Are you sure about that? Not only that results were very inconclusive
(wrong numbers / multipliers) but as I understand it, gain was here
because of the asm version itself, not because of generated hardcore
020+ code by gcc. I bet when you create 000 asm version, gain will be
again minimal for 020. And final argument, you can use m68020-60 here
as well (as there is no FPU code), no need for m68020 :P
