Author: pfg Date: Mon Mar 6 03:52:15 2017 New Revision: 314721 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/314721 Log: Revert r314669, r314670: Bring back the i486 option in GENERIC by default. The code related to i386 CPU variants configuration has received many changes in the last years: most of the features are detected automatically, so there are no performance penalties from keeping the 486 support enabled. Re-instate the 486 support: while the general configuration could still be cleaned a bit, there is no advantage in removing it.
