I was really hoping somebody would be a hero and fix that. This is
horrible for cross compiling, eg i686 vs pentium4 vs pentium3.

The point is to allow opt levels independent from the actual host
triplet, so I can have pentium4 level opt while still using
i686-w64-mingw32 toolchain. Maybe with --with-cpu=auto for the current
behavior.

I guess leaving things as it is now wouldn't hurt since its been acting
like that for ages.
