Perhaps a more satisfying answer would be that "regular" optimizations usually
don't break anything on the old processors, just
make them slower. And I don't believe there's any real meaning to the cygwin
"686" string. It at most controls these optimization
flags.
There are such things as MMX which would actually break things, but these are
not compiler defaults, are usually coded by hand (or
compiled with a special intel compiler), and are usually backed with redundant
code in the case that there is no MMX support. I
don't know if gcc has any optional MMX/3DNOW/random-intel-stupidity code
generation. But any sane developer will turn it off
unless there's a good reason for it.
