I met the problem with GCC 4.6.2 and CMOV with my project too. I
compiled DOS port of FFMPEG optimized for pentium (-march=pentium) and
my friend tested it on AMD K6-II and program crashed during
compression due to invalid opcode. Grrr I objdumped the binary and
see:
1ec15d:	0f 4e 06             	cmovle (%esi),%eax
1edf71:	0f 42 05 48 f2 c3 08 	cmovb  0x8c3f248,%eax
1f334e:	0f 40 23             	cmovo  (%ebx),%esp
1f4b35:	0f 4a 05 b4 fe 61 ef 	cmovp  0xef61feb4,%eax
1f7969:	0f 43 2a             	cmovae (%edx),%ebp
1fd563:	0f 44 28             	cmove  (%eax),%ebp

...
tens of occurences of CMOV. It seems there's no way to produce valid
code with gcc 4.6.2. I wonder it is still not fixed. There are some
small embedded PC in industry based on 386 and 486 core that doesn't
support CMOV. Shame on GCC....
In my case I will try some older gcc versions and check when CMOV
disapper...
