Found some more:

Bad: -march=k6 -Wa,-mtune=generic32
Bad: -march=geode -Wa,-mtune=generic32
Bad: -march=c3 -Wa,-mtune=generic32

That seems every thing which has MMX support but no SSE and is somehow
compatible to the pentium-mmx.

Looks like the code generator optimization for those was done after
consuming the secret gcc-shrooms.

Thanks,
