I don't know about Altivec, but some forms of MMX/SSE support are rather
unstable until gcc 4.1. However this might be only affecting implicit
SIMD, not explicit SIMD as GEM is compiled with. I remember devel_0_39
compilation crashing gcc 3.3 in a module that doesn't refer to SIMD, so
this had to be a problem with implicit SIMD.
(Else I've never used Altivec so I can't really tell.)
