Actually, -O > 2 does produce broken code in Linux. The reason -O2 is used more often on a Linux system is because you never recompile the entire system. You compile individual components that were developed by developers who used those options when they tested their code. I would bet that if there was a Linux distribution that allowed you to recompile the entire kernel and userland in one shot, then you would see some of the same problems that the FreeBSD developers have already pointed out. > Aren't we sick of this thread yet?
