>Description:
In /etc/defaults/make.conf, this text appears
# CFLAGS controls the compiler settings used when compiling C code.
# Note that optimization settings above -O (-O2, ...) are not recommended
# or supported for compiling the world or the kernel - please revert any
# nonstandard optimization settings to "-O" before submitting bug reports
# to the developers.
>From recent advice to the stable mailing list it appears that this is no longer true. -O2 is the default setting for compiling kernel/world.
