just wondering...

i use '-O2 -m486 -pipe' on my /etc/make.conf as the normal flags for all
compiling... been having that from the day i installed it in the distant
history...

back then i ran 486/33 and now p133-p200 depending which machine i use,
occasionally i use p6 too...

so, what would be the /etc/make.conf flags i want to use?

on both 2.1.6 and 3.0 since i use both. the 3.0 i want to take to the edge.
