You should mention what you want achieve with this... I mean you 
certainly don't intend to run MPlayer on an 8086...
btw.: the compiler will always optimize for some CPU, so specifying 
-mcpu or -mtune makes only the difference whether you tell it for which 
one to optimize or you simply hope it has a sane default...
