Hi Tord,

i'm used your settings: "-mcpu=G5 -mpowerpc64" but with -O3.
I will create a new version with -O2 -mtune=G5 and -mpowerpc64.
I giving an information here if its ready.

I rewrote some parts for the speedup of Windows x64. Such parts are currently
disabled if gcc used because  i'm not sure if they are correct working.

Best,
Daniel
