Can we make it dependent on the triple? i.e. if the triple is = arch-whatever-freebsd9 or greater, make it pass the flag, otherwise = don't bother? Or is it not worth caring about older FreeBSD? There's = no real disadvantage in passing it unconditionally (marginally longer = link times) and potentially a big benefit. I don't see a problem with = committing it upstream, but it would be nice to pull that change in = locally before 9.1 and not have to wait for LLVM 3.2 before we got to = make use of it. Misleading and poorly designed benchmarks on Phoronix are at stake! David=
