%-> compilation. There is however one catch. The only change that I could

%-> optimization). I could not change -m486 to -m586. I believe it is a

With GCC 2.95.2, I use:
optflags: i386 -O6 -mpentiumpro -march=i686 -ffastmath
The Linux kernel with RH patches compiles fine from src.rpm, ditto XF86 4.0.
You can read more about these at
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc_2.html#SEC11. Note that it only mentions
'O3'... 'O6' is like turning the volume knob to 11, so you might not want to
use it. ;-)
