[Gambas-user] Faster compiler

[Bruce Steers]

Awesome :)

i'm sure it will help with compiling gambas itself as it's huge.
I guess as it's the compiler it will only speed up the final make install
command where all the compiling happens but ANY speed up of compiling is a
plus, I have a number of test systems to manually update gambas on.

Merci bocoup :)
