OK, so having booted the install CD again and looking at
/usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example it seems that no CFLAGS
are set in the example file. Maybe this is the way that the install CD
is built, but I suspect that they probably use the first line which is
commented out, if not more:

CFLAGS="-mtune=k8 -O2 -pipe"
