Should we be compiling our code these days with -m486? Does anyone
know if code compiled this way is faster or slower on a pentium than
non-m486 code? This would slow down the 386 folks a little bit, but it
might be a win for the bulk of folks...

(I really haven't done enough experimentation to have a set opinion on
this.)
