I got several gcc on various machines. Targets include 'i686-pc-linux', 'mingw32' and 'sparc-sun-solaris2.8', so by default gcc will produce code optimized for i686, i386 and v7? > If the target is, e.g., i386-pc-linux-gnu, and none of the options you > mentioned was specified, then older versions of gcc will tune for the > i386, and recent versions of gcc will tune as though gcc were > configured with --with-tune=generic. -- Zuxy
