One wonders what it would be like compiled with xlc rather than gcc.

Nope...it always takes an excruciatingly long time before someone with a G5 realizes "Hey, a new Xbench is out" and posts results. Can't say that I blame 'em though...if I had a G5, I'd lock myself away from everyone for 2 weeks.
