Adding "-O2" shouldn't be necessary since normally it's set already when
building OpenSSH/OpenSSL. And AFAICS, "-mtune=" only defines a subset of
what is defined via "-mcpu=". However, for both switches "supersparc" or
"hypersparc" may be used depending on the particular CPU, but "-mv8"
should do for all sun4m machines.
