the problem is that there is no "right" or "more robust" way to do
this - its really a choice.  you can (a) optimize the app for the CPU
that you appear to have or (b) don't try to be clever about that, and
leave gcc to do it "well enough" or (c) provide your own flags. by
default, ardour's build system picks (a). FPU_OPTIMIZATION is
equivalent to (b) and ARCH is equivalent to (c).
