No. GCC can optimize for pentiums, by default it compiles for i386 though. This is needed so that we don't produce code which wont run on some systems that we want to support. All that is need is the proper CFLAGS set (which I assume the scripts that replace the normal gcc and g++ merely add these manually, and without the need for modifying the build). Ben
