Thank you for this bug report! I'm not very familiar with the LFS work; could you help me understand a bit better the need for adding this flag? Is this an MBF or something specific to gdnsd? Why would this need to be tuned at the package level? Also, is this hppa-specific? I only see FTBFS on hppa in the buildd network but no other 32-bit architectures? What are some of the other issues that you're looking at? Thanks! Faidon
