I'm not sure about the cpu numbering scheme, so what's the best cpu type for -fast if you want the resulting code to run on both G4 + G5. I should say ... ANY G4. -mcpu=7450 or -mcpu=7400?

I know that :) There are two -mcpu settings for G4s, "7400" and "7500" (mine being the older, 7400, I still can't find where this is documented per model). The question is, which -fast documentation doesn't answer, can I use -mcpu=7400 with fast (I don't have other machines to test, so I need to verify it'll work not just on my machine), or is -mcpu=7450 compatiable with the 7400 setting, and vice-versa? Which is more optimal if I want to cover BOTH classes of machines?

The -fast doc says to use "7450" for G4, but I know there are a bunch of slightly different variations, and, once again, I don't want to get into trouble when I ship.
