[Wine] Heads Up: gcc-4.6 -march=corei7 -mtune=corei7 doesn't work
Noticed something I thought I would share so that others don't scratch their head wondering about it if they try the same. I updated my system to Oneiric, and decided to recompile Wine. I tried making use of the corei7 optimizations in gcc 4.6 and found that, while a lot of stuff worked (ex. Steam), other things (like DirectX games) did not. So, as always... don't expect things to work when turning on optimizations.

[Wine] Re: Heads Up: gcc-4.6 -march=corei7 -mtune=corei7 doesn't work
Can anyone else confirm? I'm currently installing a new Gentoo on a corei7 and have been using those flags. One of the first things I am going to do right after I get it fully setup is grab Wine and compile it from the sources and I am/was tempted to use those flags. Thanks, Jorl17
