A minor grammatical nit:

  +This is the default choice for most of x86-32 targets.

"for most x86-32 targets" is correct unless the targets are some
specific subset, in which case "most of the [previously mentioned]
x86-32 targets" would work.

Maybe we can say "This is the default choice for non-Darwin x86-32
targets." here?

And further extend:
"This is the default choice for the x86-64 compiler, Darwin x86-32
targets, and the default choice for x86-32 targets with SSE2
instruction set when @option{-ffast-math} is enabled."

The phrasing looks good to me.  There should be an article before
SSE2, i.e., "targets with the SSE2 instruction set"
