* I would be nervous to use the ~x86 keyword except for specific |
6 |
packages at a high-level. The reason it takes a while for things to get |
7 |
into x86 is because there are obscure bugs which can affect obscure |
8 |
setups -- unfortunately, GNUstep is in this category. A small bug in |
9 |
the toolchain can screw up everything else on top of it. At a minimum, |
10 |
I would revert to gcc-4.1 and glibc-2.5 in x86. |

* Consider adding "-ggdb" to your C(XX)FLAGS, and "splitdebug" to your |
13 |
features. Compilation will produce gdb-compatible debugging symbols, |
14 |
but they'll be split off into /usr/lib/debug to reduce loading times for |
15 |
binaries. This works for ObjC/GNUstep; if you are serious about |
16 |
debugging, do this. |

* You have a ton of USE flags. The more intricate/featureful your |
19 |
system, the more likely you are to get weird bugs. Consider paring it |
20 |
down to exactly what you need. |
