This applies to the i386 as well (i386 can't handle i586 instructions)

This would be taken care of by the default settings of
MACHINE_CPU=ev4, which would (if we went down this path, see my
previous mail) add an explicit -mcpu=ev4 to the release (and all
other) builds. If you know your builds are only ever going to be used
on an ev5 or whatever, you can set MACHINE_CPU=ev5 ev4 in
/etc/make.conf and the hypothetical makefile logic would use -mcpu=ev5
instead.

P.S. Moving to arch for a 4th or 5th time. cvs-all isn't a discussion
list, remember? :)
