Being Jenkins being bogged down/broken recently and "make tinderbox", etc be= ing broken, it's harder to track when things break unless you do careful ins= pection (speaking of which, this reminds me that I need to setup Jenkins at w= ork to emulate jenkins.freebsd.org). I definitely appreciate knobs like this= because it gives folks the ability to toggle things on/off if issues are fo= und, either specific to their use case or not. This change (for instance), might cause grief with an older/different versio= n of gcc. Thanks, -NGie=
