The Geode LX800 is more like an i486. I used to use a box based on one
(not as a router) in the days before the Raspberry Pi. I used to build
packages in a chroot on my i7 box, using these settings

CFLAGS="-O2 -march=geode -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
CHOST="i486-pc-linux-gnu" 
MAKEOPTS="-j16 -l10"
