Optimized string operations for i586...

[Cristian Gafton]

I am trying to build the 2.1.1 using something like:
export CFLAGS=" -D__USE_STRING_INLINES -fstrict-aliasing -g -O3"
../glibc/configure --prefix=/usr --enable-add-ons=yes i586-pc-linux

Using egcs 1.1.2 everything is okay, but the resulting libc is broken;
almos all string operations are causing a segfault. Most frequesnt is
happening in ../sysdeps/i386/i486/bits/string.h when __strncpy_gg is used.

Anybody knows if this is supposed to work?
