I need to be able to use the -fno-merge-constants option in GCC 2.8.1,
which does not seem to be an option in this version.  Are there any
workarounds?  

I may have to write a script to turn all constants into variables at
prior to compilation by removing all "constant" tokens.  It's pretty
ugly, but seems to be the only remedy.
