I never go above -O2 unless I have specific reason to believe that -O2 won't cause any problems. And for ports, WITH_OPTIMIZATION flags are what I often look for. I have no problem with making it default of off, and making WITH_ an option, but I don't think the option should be removed altogether. # Adam - -- Adam Weinberger vectors.cx >> adam@vectors.cx FreeBSD.org << adamw@FreeBSD.ORG #vim:set ts=8: 8-char tabs prevent tooth decay. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+mwr7o8KM2ULHQ/0RAn+3AJ9T1YDviL/qKUfmGUYOAkSrjyShDACdHykC uBbyewHk94/eXgEO+hDKnxM= =n2Cm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
