Just to be perfectly clear here, CPUTYPE is makefile code only, it
doesn't change gcc in any way. All it does is add settings to CFLAGS
and activate asm code in OpenSSL -- therefore if -march worked for you
before, it will continue to work into the future.

There are some ports which have asm code which will be (but are not
currently) tied to CPUTYPE. e.g. mpg123, john, and at least half a
dozen others.
