Should work fine.  Last I checked any higher settings for athlon don't work.
Same with p4s.  One must run with the p3 setting.  Besides, it will work with
the specified level or higher.  Also you are using -mcpu which means optimize
for, but still make it compatible with other archs.  -march says optimize for
this cpu type or higher, without regard to compatibility.
