In menuconfig, submenu: "Build System Configuration", there is an option
that allows you to select your CPU.  I've been building all of my betas
as i686 because my home firewall is a celeron.

It _appears_ the CPU option only effects the kernel compile, and it
would seem like all heavily used packages would benefit from this.

FWIW, The following Redhat packages come with optional i686 RPM's:
kernel, glibc and openssl.   

It would seem like the DL CPU option should apply to at least all three
of those packages.  (and it appears not to effect any of them, as far as
I can tell)

Is this something we should change?
