CPUTYPE=i686 -O2 -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -mtune=i686 I had the kernel compiled with those flags and used it for a while with no problem. Actually, I am not sure: maybe, I could leave the kernel compiled with the flags and just re-compile firefox2 without them, or vice versa. I got tired of re-building the port, so I just disabled the flags everywhere, and it resulted in firefox2 running properly. When the flags were enabled, I got an error while portupgrading firefox, but the build didn't fail because if this error. I can't remember exactly; it was something like "Chrome build failed, core dumped..."; firefox was built though, but didn't work.
