Actually, I have both a Pentium and a Pentium II machine.  The 486 is the
full-time Linux box.  The PII has Linux installed as well.

Since most people do have Pentiums, my goal is to compile a program, which
I distribute,  with Pentium optimizations.  Not -march=pentium, but just
-mpentium.

Are you suggesting that PGCC does not improve on -mpentium over EGCS?
