If gcc passes "-mtune=i686" down to gas and thus the end result doesn't match gcc's own documentation (and whole point of -mtune), then it's still a gcc bug, even if it may not be a "cc1" bug. The fact that "cc1" and "gas" are two different phases is pretty much irrelevant. gcc calls them both. But sure, if there are separate bugzillas, post it in both. Linus
