 Surely this is not a sensible choice?

 PARI must have exhibited some bugs.  The question is how/why/if this is
 still needed.

 -march=core2 using the latest gcc and that seems to work fine.

 The answer is at #7092:  because of a failure to build pari with gcc-4.4.1
 as distributed by Fedora 11, on ALL Linux systems the OPTFLAG is set to
 -O1 instead of -O3.  Is there not a way to detect that particular
 compiler-distro combination?  Otherwise all Linux users suffer!
