In fact, those are the defaults (at least in FreeBSD 6 on
i386; amd64 uses additional options like -frename-registers),
so I would suggest to _not_ specify the options in make.conf
at all.

If you specify a "CPUTYPE" setting in /etc/make.conf, then
appropriate "-march=xxx" options will be added to CFLAGS and
COPTFLAGS automatically, so you don't have to care for that
either.

As the saying goes:  "Less is more" ...  ;-)
