I mentioned > that a week ago but you never said whether it worked... I use the following on a Mobile Athlon XP, and the loader works just fine: CFLAGS=-O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -mfpmath=sse,387 -msse -m3dnow COPTFLAGS=-Os -pipe CPUTYPE?=athlon-xp And on my Desktop Athlon XP I use the following, which results in a broken loader: CFLAGS=-O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing COPTFLAGS=-Os -pipe CPUTYPE=athlon-xp So what's the non obvious difference (I noticed it just now)? The "?=" instead of "=" in CPUTYPE! Can the affected people please try if this work-around makes a difference for them?
