:I'd be a lot happier with something like:
:
:WARNING!  Some folks suspect there may be problems with some CPUTYPE
:settings on the i386 family.  If you are experiencing problems, please try
:turning any CPUTYPE optimizations off to eliminate it as a possibility.

    'Warning!  GCC revs have been known to be unstable with higher 
    optimization levels or architecture-specific (-m) optimizations.  We
    do not recommend that you default your system to anything other
    then the basic -O optimization.  Also, -O2 has historically been safe
    but recent GCC revs seem to cause problems with it as well, especially
    on kernel compiles, and we do not recommend it be used as a default.'
