-maes option, but not the -mpclmul option as I ran out of bits in
the 32 bit flags field... You can -D__PCLMUL__ to get this, but it
won't be compatible w/ clang and modern gcc...

Initial support for the AMD amdfam10 chipsets has been available in the
gcc43 branch under GPLv2. AMD and some linux distributions (OpenSUSE) did
a backport of the amdfam10 support and made it available.
This is a revised subset of the support initially brought in in r236962
and later reverted. The collateral efects seem to have disappeared but
it is still recommended to set the CPUTYPE with caution.

The patches are unexpectedly causing gcc to fail while
building ports/graphics/ImageMagick even when the cpu
flags are not used.

Initial support for the AMD barcelona chipsets has been available in the
gcc43 branch under GPLv2 but was not included when the Core 2 support
was brought to the system gcc.
AMD and some linux distributions (OpenSUSE) did a backport of the amdfam10
support and made them available. Unfortunately this is still experimental
and while it can improve performance, enabling the CPUTYPE may break some
C++ ports (like clang).
Special care was taken to make sure that the patches predate the GPLv3
switch upstream.

and k8-sse3 cpu-types for -march=/-mtune= gcc options.
These new cpu-types include the SSE3 instruction set that is supported
by all newer AMD Athlon 64 and Opteron processors.
All three cpu-types are supported by clang and all gcc versions
starting with 4.3 SVN rev 124339 (at that time GPLv2 licensed).
