Has anyone done any recent floating point intensive benchmarks between
pgcc, gcc-2723, gcc-280, and egcs.

Even with pgcc CFLAGS at:

-mpentiumpro -O9 -frisc -fomit-frame-pointer \
  -fno-exceptions -malign-double -mstack-align-double \
  -funroll-all-loops

It seems like floating point stuffs is faster on gcc-2723 and gcc-280...

Hmmm... If no one has done the test recently... well... I can do a set
of benchmarks test myself and report back.
