I see they've fixed some stuff since M13. But, putting the right stuff in .mozconfig can be tricky. If you put certain things in there, the build will bomb out. BTW, I noticed there's certain bugs with gcc's optimization code. For example, I used '-mpentium -O3 -pipe' as the optimization flags in building the latest Qt snapshot. If I used those CFLAGS I described, the build bombs out with "Internal compiler error". When I reverted back to the stock CFLAGS for the Qt build (-O2 -pipe), the errors went away. I guess I really don't have to build _everything_ on the planet with -mpentium -O3 -pipe. I noticed that most gcc "Internal compiler errors" are caused by using high optimization levels. I really didn't notice that big an increase in performance, anyways. The performance increase was about on par with changing the air filter in your car. - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
