I would expect the opposite (depending on the default optimisations you
have set up for your compilation environment)

The binary package may well be targetted to 486 to make sure that when you
run it on your 486 it doesn't try to use Pentium or Pentium Pro
instructions.

I'm not totally sure but make; make install will surely do a configure to see
what processor it's running on etc.
