Isn't this result not to flattering for maverick crunch because of 
benchmarking arithmetic divisions too?

 From the benchmarks posted by cirrus:

soft_float:
ADD: calculation took        187 ms,   test rv=2.2556635255738473e+06
SUB: calculation took        191 ms,   test rv=-2.2556635255738473e+06
MUL: calculation took        310 ms,   test rv=7.0863759618797886e+06
DIV: calculation took       1037 ms,   test rv=1.9758917663375622e+06

crunch compiled:
ADD: calculation took          1 ms,   test rv=2.2556635255738473e+06
SUB: calculation took          1 ms,   test rv=-2.2556635255738473e+06
MUL: calculation took         25 ms,   test rv=7.0863759618797889e+06
NRD: calculation took        670 ms,   test rv=1.9758917663375624e+06
DIV: calculation took       1020 ms,   test rv=1.9758917663375624e+06

So even if you improve soft by a factor of 6, additions, subtractions 
and multiplications would still be much much better using crunch. And 
these are the basic operations you need to do matrix multiplication.
