[plug] Optimized Distro

I have just compiled my kernel, optimized for my Celeron 466 on a Debian r0 
system. I know that Debian packages are compiled so that they will run on a 
386 up. I like the Gentoo approach of compiling every thing so that it is 
optimized. I don't know how it resolves dependences though. I also know 
that Debian has src packages although I don't think they are on CD.
I am looking for a distro where I can optimized my packages but I like the 
apt-get in Debian. It would need to be like Debian but with large 
components compiled from source. I don't know if this can be done with 
Debian considering I am on 56k.
Please help me ether get apt-get source working with details on getting 
source on cd or some thing else.
Thanks
Tim
