If you search this forum, you'll find mention of this problem several times 
Most common solutions:
emerge only 1 program at a time, and more important:
lower your optimisation-flags. |

I'm sorry, but.. optimisation flags ?
htf do I do that ? I mean.. through editing the ebuild? and what
do I edit?
(I'm sorry for being a newbie or not searching the forums better.. but if they go into details in other posts.. would you please let me know ? :)
thanks, Ellidi |

in /etc/make.conf
check this:
CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
Example to lower your optimisation-flags:
CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" |

Hmm, It still doesn't work, well,
I put CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -02 -pipe"
I have an Athlon XP 1700+, Is there anything that I'm doing wrong or/and should set some flags on or off or higher or lower ?
thx, Ellidi |

I always go back to -march=i686. If those work you can always optimize further from a working situation. The gcc-athlon settings can be tricky. |

I will try to compile with -march=i686 and when it doesn|t work, I ll try to compile xfree-4.2.99.
Regards.

Thank you guys :)
It seems that I had to change the settings in /etc/make.globals
still I find it strange, because I thought make.conf overrides make.globals
anyway this is working now with
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -03 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -03 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
|
Thanks alot guys :)

The quick way (as always) is to read the man pages:
man gcc
Which states:
| Code: |
-O3 Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all ptimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions and -frename-registers options.
|
If you really don't know what these do, I suggest not to use them. Using any flag with the c-compiler without knowing the consequences may wreck havoc on your system.

Hmm.. Thanks..
so it might not be such a good Idea to enable the -03 ay?
well.. I started compiling my system on it.. we'll see how much havoc it turns out to wreck.
:)
Ty for the tip though.
