I have been trying to convert the VC++ routine below into an inline one for
gcc without success - I can do most of it but I cannot find an equivalent
for _emit to get gcc to issue the two bytes 0x0f and 0x31.  Any help here
would be much appreciated!

cycle counting routine on Pentium II

double cycles(void)
{ unsigned long hi, lo;

 __asm
 { _emit 0x0f
  _emit 0x31
  mov  lo,eax
     mov  hi,edx
 }

 return 4294967296.0 * hi + lo;
};
