Nevermind, found it in the man page.

With  -msupersparc  the compiler optimises code for the SuperSparc cpu, as used in the SparcStation 10, 1000 and 2000 series. This flag also enables
use of the full SPARC v8 instruction set.

Which of these apply to the Ultra5?

cpuinfo returns:

(root@sixtyfour)~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
cpu		: TI UltraSparc IIi
fpu		: UltraSparc IIi integrated FPU
