CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -mcpu=pentium4 -funroll-loops -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
without problems (this was december 20-21).

Hi,
I tried to install Gentoo from stage 1 2 and 3 foolowing the very good installation docs but in all cases different programs refuse to compile with more or less the same error message:
{Standard Input} Assembler messages {Standard Input} Error: Suffix or operands invalid for `movd'
When starting with stage1 it was gettext that did not compile and IIRC after stage 3 was ppp that refused to compile with the same error message.
I downloaded and tried the new gentoo 2004 stages as well but the problem persists.
Any ideas what goes wrong?

What CFLAGS (or CXXFLAGS) have you been using?

Hi Alex,
thats my CFLAGS in /etc/make.conf:
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -mcpu=i686 -funroll-loops -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
It seems as if gcc produces assembler code that as does net (yet) understand.
I suggest to switch back to pentium3 for the package that fails; I think you won't notice any difference in performance. If it happens to more packages in base system, I suggest to compile the whole base system with pentium3.
IMHO P4 optimization makes only sense for applications that really _need_ the performance. If it makes too many troubles, the performace gain of less than 1% for "normal" applications isn't worth the time you spend.
Greetings, Alex
