6 Really late post on this, but an emphasis on march settings is warranted.

8 This will totally bungle all kinds of compiling.

10 If you keep around things like gcc-3 for rainy days, you'll also find
11 that some newer march optimizations are not defined in older gcc
12 versions, and this will make you all confused why nothing will compile
13 with your hardened compiler (which, incidentally, has g77).
14
15 I have three march items commented out (with comments on what each one
16 is) in my make.conf so at least I think about it if I'm trouble
17 shooting.

19 I got thrown off the other day setting up a newer machine with the
20 same kind of problem (it needed old code and gcc3...grrr).
