Not directly related to this bug, but can someone give a brief
explanation what
i486, i586 are for? Is i686 good for everything or is it good for Pentium X and
above only? If so, X=? and what is the athlon correspondence?
i686 is, AFAIK, anything that glibc considers "i686" (i.e. uname -m == i686).
I'd say that's Pentium Pro and above (i.e. Pentium II/III/4). From AMD camp
that's Athlon and above and from VIA it's VIA C3 and above (even though C3
doesn't have the "cmov" instruction, which means you shouldn't use
-march=i686
when compiling stuff for it; C3-2 does have it though).
