BTW, you might want to double check (in general), whether you want to use
-march, -mtune, or -mcpu flags. It's apparently not only platform/version
specific, which of the three flags are supported, but especially the
meaning of -mcpu seems to depend on the platform as well. E.g. on
Intel, -mcpu seems to behave like Sparc's -mtune option (optimize
e.g. scheduling for that CPU but don't use CPU specific commands) while
Sparc's -mcpu option behaves like Intel's -march option (do use CPU specific
commands).
BTW, at least for gcc-3.3.5, the info file does not state anything about
-mcpu being deprecated on Intel, on the contrary, -mcpu and -march even
have different meaning. What is mentioned as deprecated, though, is the
use of -m386, -mpentium and the like which should be replaced by -mcpu=i386,
-mcpu=pentium and the like.
