Just to round off, here are some concrete timings:

configure with GCC
real	0m9.203s
user	0m3.752s
sys	0m0.972s


make - serial - GCC
real	0m17.806s
user	0m15.984s
sys	0m0.528s


make -j with GCC
real	0m8.148s
user	0m27.996s
sys	0m0.808s


configure with tcc
real	0m5.915s
user	0m0.832s
sys	0m0.424s


serial make with tcc
real	0m2.580s
user	0m1.540s
sys	0m0.180s

make -j with tcc
real	0m1.107s
user	0m2.544s
sys	0m0.236s

Very real compile time differences for clean builds. GCC from scratch
is 18 seconds, tcc from scratch is around 7. Over 200% difference!

Thanks again to everyone.
