You want to use -march=i386 rather than -m386.  -m386 only sets -mcpu=i386
which, iirc, only deals with optimization levels and -march determines
whether or not the cpu architecure specific opcodes are used.  Last I
checked (early 1.0.x), egcs seemed to default these values to be whatever
cpu/arch it is built on.  However, the egcs 1.1.2 that comes with RH6.0
appears to use mcpu=i386 & march=i386 so that might have changed.
