Consider it done! :-)

I have just uploaded the file "Amiga30-1405.lha" which is an optimized
version of Inform for 68030-based Amigas. I mucked around with
several optimization settings and this is the best I could come up
with. Total executable size is 115184 bytes which is about 3.5k
smaller than the general version :)

Some statistics for those still interested. I tried compiling the file
advent.inf under three different versions of inform and got the following
compile times (based on Inform's own internal clock):

Non-optimized version: 98 secs
optimized version(68000) 93 secs
optimized version(68030) 83 secs

Test machine is an Amiga 2000 running a 25Mtz 68030 & 68882 with 7M RAM.
