You may fiddle a little with the lib/specs file. There is no documentation 
for it AFAIK, but you should be able to determine how to add a conditional 
switch to define M486 or M386. Beware however, that this introduces a serious 
incompatibility to your program - you'd have to be sure that everyone 
compiling your program uses your specs as well. Besides, why would you need 
such a macro?
