Sweet, that's a big step forward to improving compilation speed (if I'm not 
mistaken precompiled header support is already in the GCC release version for 
Mac OS X). However, Kylix seems to be much faster than GCC, even with 
precompiled headers turned off. I just hope that Borland will fix the bugs in 
a future release of Kylix and, what's very important, add support for the G++ 
3.2 ABI.
