I actually used this:

CFLAGS          ?= -O -pipe -mcpu=i686 -march=i686
COPTFLAGS       ?= -O -pipe -mcpu=i686 -march=i686

All the diffs in sys/ on the box I built this kernel on are at
http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/sys-mutex.patch.  One possibly notable
patch I had forgotten about is the fix to forward_signal() to lock with
sched_lock.  I've just committed that though.
