I'm running gcc 3.3.6. I just ran "emerge --sync" a few minutes ago. Running "emerge --ask --deep --update --world" doesn't mention gcc. Are you unmasking a test version?
I think gcc-3.4* is still marked ~x86; however since that version -mcpu has been depreciated in favor for -mtune.
As for the mmx information, that's valid across all gcc versions. If you specify -march=pentium4 and -mcpu=pentium4 as part of your CFLAGS, -mmmx and -msse, etc., will be implied by the compiler, and any programs built to take advantage of the extensions will be able to do so.
