the flags posted where just a example and not a copy and paste of my makefile ofc ... and it takes more then slapping a compiler flag on it to put the full benefit of sse2 or beyond to use and yes you would not want to use a cpu-specific flag in a general release.
and to hell with performance on older hardware make a -generic build and call it a day
even on lowest settings @ 1024x768 xonotic requires at least a 2.8Gz P4 and a 6600GT AGP if someone is running something that old then to hell with them sorry but it is what it is you can't please everyone and I see no sense in putting forth more then marginal effort so dog slow machines can run at 30fps vrs 25Fps not in a twitch based game like xonotic
