historically, gcc on x86 has always defaulted to i386. some people noticed
recently that glibc-2.6 fails to build in this situation as they were only
setting -mtune via CFLAGS, not -march. i'll be tweaking gcc so that it will
default -march based on your CHOST. so all the i686-* people will now have a
default -march=i686 implied in their gcc systems, i586-* people will
have -march=i586, etc... keep in mind this is merely the default.
