Subject:   are things optimized for i686 if that's in our kernel?

simple question:

If I recompile the kernel to show that I've got dual CPU i686, 
does the software I install after that (from ports or source)
*optimize* itself for that CPU?

(People name it as a benefit to Gentoo Linux and I suspected
that it was a given in BSD.)
