1.1.1.3   root       24:  * When USE_COMPILER is defined, a m68k->i386 instruction compiler will be
                     25:  * used. This is experimental. It has only been tested on a Linux/i386 ELF
                     26:  * machine, although it might work on other i386 Unices.
                     27:  * This is supposed to speed up application programs. It will not work very
                     28:  * well for hardware bangers like games and demos, in fact it will be much
                     29:  * slower. It can also be slower for some applications and/or benchmarks.
                     30:  * It needs a lot of tuning. Please let me know your results with this.
                     31:  * The second define, RELY_ON_LOADSEG_DETECTION, decides how the compiler 
                     32:  * tries to detect self-modifying code. If it is not set, the first bytes
                     33:  * of every compiled routine are used as checksum before executing the
                     34:  * routine. If it is set, the UAE filesystem will perform some checks to 
                     35:  * detect whether an executable is being loaded. This is less reliable
                     36:  * (it won't work if you don't use the harddisk emulation, so don't try to
                     37:  * use floppies or even the RAM disk), but much faster.
