I believe Keith already merged it into 68020-60 build? At least that
was his response to Howard's patch. So it's matter of measuring I
guess.

On the contrary, they are not. BF instructions are very slow, much
slower than simply and/or/shift combo, esp. on 060 where you can
pipeline this stuff.

Keith? As you have build those packages, you've got this test build as well?
