One point on the PNG mailing lists came up with the non-optimizing VC++
and GCC. Someone compared some straight C code versus some
hand-optimized assembly language, and gcc on the straight code did a
better job than the hand-optimized assembly code under gcc or VC++. So,
for some things it might even beat VC++.
