I haven't done the emerge -e thing, but shouldn't everything eventually
make its way to those CFLAGS anyway just because it will be upgraded?
Yes, eventually it will. And as i386 is compatible to pentium3,
I wouldn't expect any compatibility issues. You might not get
the VERY best performance - but then again, I doubt that there'll
be noticeable performancegain by compiling with march=pentium3
anyway. There will certainly some applications which benefit from
this, but overall, on a desktop, this won't be noticeable (ie.
won't achive a performance gain of >10%).
