Are you sure this is a good idea even for 32-bit code (i.e. shouldn't we
have separate tunables for 32-bit and 64-bit code)?
I admit I haven't performed trunk bootstraps/regtests for 3 days, am doing
x86_64 and i686 bootstraps/regtests concurrently and it is yes,rtl checking,
but am quite surprised that compared to 3 days ago the bootstrap time of
i686-linux (all,obj-c++,go) went up from about 70 minutes or so to 140 minutes 
today,
while the x86_64-linux (all,obj-c++,go,ada) remained basically the same
around 2 hours.  This is on quad socket Quad-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 
8354,
perhaps it is just extremely undesirable there.
