[-- Attachment #1 --] About a week ago des changed the default value of CFLAGS to "-O2 -pipe" on FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT. While this is believed to be safe for compiling world + kernel on -CURRENT thesedays (because the aliasing bugs that are exposed with -O2 have been fixed), it's definitely *not* safe for compiling many ports (there are at least 350 ports that emit warnings about aliasing, and would probably have runtime errors when compiled with -O2; moreover, a number of ports fail to even build with -O2). Therefore, if you compile ports on FreeBSD 6.0, you should set CFLAGS=-O -pipe in your /etc/make.conf for now, until we can resolve this problem more satisfactorily.
