Hi, no, it would not. gcc would simply refuse to work, because CHOST="pentium4-pc-linux-gnu" is not a valid CHOST. CHOST describes the platform you build on. For optimizations take a look at CFLAGS.
And by the way: Changing CHOST is not worth the trouble. Even if it would be possible in your case, it would be better to do a new install. It's faster (because when you change CHOST, you should at least run emerge -e system && emerge -e world) and less likely to break. -- [email protected] mailing list
