In an article of PC MAGAZINE (April 27, 93) "Apps Ready for Pentium"
they mention that applications that have been recompiled for Pentium
chips will also run 10 - 15 percent faster on a 486, too. 

1) Does this mean that the various 486 compilers for DOS machines don't
   support instruction scheduling?

2) Does GCC have the inst. scheduling stuff in there to make it work
   faster.
