Subject: [gentoo-amd64] Compiling mozilla/firefox with -O2
Date: Mon, 07 Nov 2005 15:23:14
Message-Id: 436F70C0.1040303@telia.com
1 The mozconfig eclass strips flags down to -O1 on amd64 with the
2 explanation "more than -O1 causes segfaults on 64-bit (bug 33767)". That
3 bug is two years old and we have a much improved amd64 toolchain since.
4 I've been compiling firefox and and mozilla with -O2 and -Os for quite
5 some time and never had any problems at all. And this is also what
6 binary distros does. I opened a bug about it but nobody responded:
7 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86571

9 So please test compiling firefox and other mozilla apps with -O2 and
10 respond to that bug so this can be fixed!
