Yes it is, I would more likely see that than adding even more useflags to |
| 5 |
profiles. |

Uh, -march=i586 will tell gas to accept only instructions present on i586, |
| 11 |
even if they come out of inline asm. |
| 12 |
If the inline asm is MMX, gas refuses to produce code. |

It would only work with nasm sources. |

Yes, you told me, and this is why we're not here discussing that. I told you |
| 20 |
want I think of the idea, I don't dislike it although I find it (thinking as |
| 21 |
it is now) a bit more complex. |
| 22 |
I'm waiting to see a sample implementation tho, as that is what we should base |
| 23 |
on. |
