I changed make.conf on, I believe, Dec. 6: # CFLAGS= -O -pipe CFLAGS= -O -pipe -mcpu=pentiumpro -march=pentiumpro (There's also: COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe) (I gather that -mcpu is redundant.) I re-cvsup, buildworld, and installworld (and kernel. . .) roughly weekly (7 times, by my logs). Until the CPUTYPE discussion came up, I had forgotten I was trying out -march; everything seems to be working fine.
