x86 build failure : __sync_sub_and_fetch_4

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi,

while building a new release of gnustep-base, I get this failure on 
unstable9x

Making all for tool autogsdoc...

Have you aready experienced something like that?

 From what I could gather from the internet, this is caused by forcing 
i386 because those functions are available only on >= 486 as atomic 
function.
If someone can confirm that this is the problem, is it it reasonable to 
compile for 486 and up only? What's the best way to set march ?
