I don't use gentoo sources but I remember reading about gentoo patches
for processor specific optimizations and being tempted to try them. Is it
possible that is what you're refering to?

The vanilla sources only shows 5 choices for me on amd64:
(X) Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8
( ) Intel P4 / older Netburst based Xeon
( ) Core 2/newer Xeon
( ) Intel Atom
( ) Generic-x86-64

And it shows a different set of options when I run it on an x86 machine.
