Nice benchmark work! Was curious whether removing the -m486 (not used
by original poster) made any difference. Answer: no, same results.
BTW, my results for Pentium 120 were (C) 22.75, (C++) 22.74, and 
(C++ SLOWMODE) 37.97. Moral: keep constructors out of tight loops.
Interesting that the relative penalty was much higher on my machine
than yours - a 486?
