Sorry pegcs was a typo. Since pgcc is a patched egcs I tend to think
of it as pegcs. I know that it has AMD optimizations. Both -mamdk6 and I
think -mk6 or something like that. The secondary option is for beta
optimizations so you should only use -mamdk6. Just check the Pentium GCC
group's web site and you should find out any other options. Although, if
I remember correctly, their web site claims to have Cyrix optimization I
do not know what they are. You may have to ask them.
