Current default for CPU tuning of code is i386 (set in specs). This can of course be overriden on command line, but shouldn't we bump the default to 486 or 586. If nothing else, shouldn't we build the toolset exes tuned to run on at least 486. If someone suggests bumping to a 686 I will not argue. I will just stop contributing.

If two negatives, I say no, unless you also distribute the i386 prebuilds. > If someone suggests bumping to a 686 I will not argue.
