This is actually half correct.

: I don't know if this has any implications on code generation. A simple

The -march= is what really matters.  All i[3456]86 based chips are, at their
base, considered `i386' processors, but the architecture can be set for code
generation as gcc does above.  The actual architecture name is i386, not
i586 or i686.

When it comes down to it, a machine name such as `i586-pc-linux' is
incorrect.  `configure' just happily accepts it and treats it as
`i386-pc-linux'.  Same goes for SCO.
