Remember the old code had CFLAGS="" in lots of platforms, meaning they got no optimization. It seems right now Alpha is our only problem, and it is really just a message problem because the later flags override the earlier ones. Why can't get just remove -O2 from the alpha CFLAGS line via makefile magic? Frankly, we could just do CFLAGS="-O" and be done with it because we would not be bringing in the -O2, but I would rather keep it clean and remove just -O2. I don't think going backwards is a good solution because it spreads the problem down to the templates again. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
