Does anyone know how hard it would be to install a box with a standard
distro, then recompile from source packages every package on the box, with
specific optimisation flags (-mpentiumpro -fschedule-insns -O3 -s come to
mind).

Some thing like:

packages=`rpm -qa`
for package in $packages ; do
    wget http://redhatmirror/directory/$package\*srpm
    CFLAGS="-mpentiumpro -fschedule-insns -O3 -s" rpm -ta --clean ${package}*
    rpm --install /usr/src/RedHat/RPMS/${package}*
    rm /usr/src/RedHat/RPMS/${package}*
    rm *srpm
done

Could something like that be made to work ?
