Just use native.  I build ports with -march=native and -mtune=native.  I 
leave the base alone because I don't know if I'll ever need to downgrade 
from my athlon II(k10) to my sempron(k8) and recompile all my ports.

Of course that should only matter if clang supports sse4 and I build 
with clang.
