simple-base-strings and simple-bit-vectors is improved.
* optimization: the optimization of 32-bit logical and arithmetic
functions introduced in version 0.8.3 on the x86 has been

+ implemented on the mips, ppc and sparc platforms.
* microoptimization: the compiler is better able to make use of the
x86 LEA instruction for multiplication by constants.
* bug fix: in some situations compiler did not report usage of
