13 Then I must be lucky. I actually don't use ricer-flags (I'm on "-O2
14 -march=native -pipe" for CFLAGS.) --as-needed is simply just too good
15 for revdep-rebuild in order not to use it. I figured that when actually
16 something does break with it (nothing yet on my system) it would show
17 immediately with a build or runtime error (good) rather than running
18 with silent bugs (bad) and possibly corrupting things; build error or
19 immediate crash. I hope I'm not assuming too much here :P
