gcc no, but you might want to have a look at the lang/pgcc package. pgcc 
(Pentium GCC) is a big patch against the standard GCC distribution to add more 
optimizations for different x86 processors. I've noticed a huge speed increase 
with my K6 and K6-3 ever since I started using it... it accepts flags such as '-
mk6', '-march=k6' and '-mcpu=k6', although I'm not sure how effective they will 
be with a k7.

Jared
