Hmm, this is quite unexpected... Do you have a hypothesis why not using -mrtd could cause a problem (a miscompilation?) ? I previously assumed that -O1 is typically a quite safe optimization, not sure if it's even worth trying -O0 for a test. Or could this be about a size of gptboot blob? -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
