 Yes, I am.  You had said earlier that it might be a problem, so I'm
 pushing it.  I think firefox & friends force -mcpu=v8, but I can't confirm
 off hand.  And I know that everything else has been rebuilt aggressively
 optimized, because it's supposed to work, after all. (Although c++ +
 hardened remanins unusalbe.)  (But I hate java,
 and so maybe it's just fighting back at us?)

Currently the "replace-sparc64-flags" function from the flag-o-matic eclass (used by mozilla* as well as others) doesn't handle changing -mcpu=ultrasparc3, only -mcpu=ultrasparc or -mcpu=v9.

If you have the resources and feel up to it, it might be worth
experimenting by adding it into the eclass locally and rebuilding mozilla*
or any other packages that use it.  For that matter, it's probably still
worthwhile to see if replace-sparc64-flags is still applicable in the
ebuilds that call it.


Will do. It'll take me a couple of days, though.
