It looks like the MINIX ST people will get stuck with as poor
a compiler as the PC people did.

MJC 2.0 (Mark Johnson's shareware C compiler) does 950 Dhrystones (NOREG)
with version 2 Dhrystone. Does anyone have a Dhrystone 2 figure for one of
the above compilers so I can scale the MJC result to Dhrystone 1?

I'd really like to see the Dhrystone results from GCC on an 8 Mhz 68000,
does anyone have them?
