On these recommended settings:

>> Recommended settings are:
>>
>>        -O3 -m[sse3 or ssse3] -march=nocona -mfpmath=sse
>>

I think we should be recommending to use the '-Wall' too.  Not only do we
want our products to perform at the highest level on an Intel platform, we
also want SW to be solid and of high quality.
