Well, unless you have some wild settings in your /etc/make.conf (for example
~ARCH, which is similar to debian unstable; or say wrong CHOST, CFLAGS and
CXXFLAGS ), from my personal experience I don't think gentoo will ever give
you an under-optimized or broken system . All compile switches provided with
the ebuilds are tested by the developers. Could you please share the details
where such a thing has happened?

Bhaskar.
