I want to play with this manually for a few weeks, then I'll use buildpkg and PGKDIR. One last qustion. If the USE settings are identical and the CFLAGS are similar between an AMD and Intel, can I use the approach with one system being Intel and the other being AMD: AMD CFLAGS="-O3 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" Intel CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe " This will work too?
