Thank you James.
I was beginning to wonder if those settings were involved in the glibc
problem you were helping with in another thread.
Do you mind pointing me to the source of that answer?
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags#Opteron.2FAthlon64_.28AMD.29
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html
The Safe_Cflags page says that march=athlon64 is the correct one,
however, athlon64 and k8 are identical as far as gcc is concerned, and
it seems to me to be more accepted to use march=k8. (And please, if
I'm wrong about (k8==athlon64), someone please let me know, 'cause I'm
also running AMD64. :) )
Another handy gentoo-wiki.com page:

Also, I'm wondering if when I change the march setting to k8 in the
mindle of an update world what that might do.
I don't know - you might want to set it to k8, then do an emerge -e
system && emerge -e world, but it also might be safe to let it just
change packages over to march=k8 as you upgrade them - anyone else
know if it's ok to run "mixed" march's?
It may be a good time to do it but I wonder if I need to do anything
to already compiled updates.
