I recently installed 3.4 from the iso image. I tried to compile a kernel
with both the pgcc and egcs ports that came with the release, but
couldn't get a bootable kernel with `-O2 -mpentium`. However, egcs
worked fine with `-O -mpentium` on both machines (P133 and K6-2 350). If
I have the time I may try to narrow it down by using `-O2` and
selectively disabling certain optimizations, but for now I'm curious
about other peoples' experiences.
