Following current, I am sure many have noticed that there are a LOT of packages changing from i486 to i586. The plot thickens even more when you take a look at Pat's note in the gcc.SlackBuild:
# Some more notes, Mon Aug 3 19:49:51 UTC 2015: # # Changing to -march=i586 for 32-bit x86 as several things (Mesa being one of # them) no longer work if constrained to -march=i486. We're not going to use # -march=i686 since the only additional opcode is CMOV, which is actually less # efficient on modern CPUs running in 32-bit mode than the alternate i586 # instructions. No need to throw i586 CPUs under the bus (yet). http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackware64-current/source/d/gcc/gcc.SlackBuild It sounds like it may be time to consider switching SBo to i586 (starting with the next release).
