 i686 rpms with NPTL enabled, and i386 rpms without.

 Another benefit of this is that we can give GCC the -march flag. This
 would allow it to do things like emit cmovCC instructions. On my AMD,
 passing -march=athlon gave a noticable boost.

+i386/i686:
+----------
+Yeah, I agree that this would be a _real_ fix :D
+
+I understand that this requires more work and compiling Mono twice,
+but it seems that it's the only complete solution for now..
+
+Hope that changing rpm's specs isn't really hard work so it can be
+done without disturbing any more important things.
+
+I rather can't help because I can't find fedora SRPMs/specs anywhere
+and likely I would rather mess than fix something, I've never done
+RPMs. But if no one is willing to do it, I can try - only point me to
+.spec file =)
+
+-march:
+-------
+Sure, -march=i686 would be nice, cmovCC is supported by i686.. But if
+you want something other than march=i386/i686, then Gentoo probably is
+the right distribution for you ;-)
