I would believe that with gcc 2.7, which is about when I first heard
that claim, but I'm kind of dubious this is still true.

Well, like I say, my own experiments indicate nothing like as big a
margin as that. No detectable margin at all in fact. Q3 is a pretty
crap comparison though, as it's hardware accelerated and will spend a
lot of time in the GL library. Using Q2 with the software renderer
would make a lot more sense.
