On a DS25, with ev68 CPU, I cannot set -mcpu=ev68 as CFLAGS, because  
that option is not supported. Should I set it to ev6 or to ev67 then?  
Which is the main difference in that?
If I set no -mcpu option I have problems since the g++ compiler seems  
to work not properly.

Thanks

Using -mcpu=ev67 is fine. ev68 doesn't support any new instructions
afaik and scheduling is similar as well. If you decide to use -mcpu=ev6
you're going to miss the CIX instruction set and probably suffer
(somewhat) lower performance.
