Cross-posted because the failure happens when compiling teTex even though the problem is really caused by (XFree86|xorg)-libraries. Ignorant folks (like me) may not know to do a "pkg_which /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so" and ask on the -x11 list. Also, this shows that -Os may not be as reliable as expected. I apologize if I shouldn't have cross-posted. Short version: Don't compile (XFree86|xorg)-libraries with -Os. Long, rambling version: I have been running into the following problem when attempting to compile teTex: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so: undefined reference to `.L91' A search turned up this page (not sure on the language -- all I know is that I can't read it!): http://www.bsdguru.org/dyskusja/viewtopic.php?t=2707 My deductive reasoning skills noted the following details about the final post: 1) smiley face (with shades!), usually indicative of a problem solved 2) -Os, a flag I have in /etc/make.conf 3) "bibliotek XFree", which I assume is XFree86-libraries (go high school Spanish!) I recompiled the xorg-libraries port with just -O (instead of -Os) and, violà, everything compiles nicely. In retrospect, it was a simple library problem and I should have known to recompile (XFree86|xorg)-libraries based on the origin of libXaw.so. Anyone run into problems with -Os on other ports? I've seen some ports not compile with it (mplayer is the only that immediately comes to mind), but never a delayed issue like this where it affects a different port. Jon Noack
