What was the exact version of GCC you used? I've seen a number of reports of GCC-3.3.3_pre20040408 not compiling things correctly when O is > 1.
Wow, you hit that one right on the nose! Thanks! Should there be a comment/patch for the ebuild for this? I can write one up if need be. tweiand@gaia tweiand $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3_pre20040408-r1) Copyright (C) 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

For my help: where did you search for this information? I could not find it anywhere.
Why was this marked "FIXED" when "emerge tcpdump" on ppc still fails with the stable compiler? Attached is a patch that specifies "-O1" when building on ppc with gcc 3.3.3_pre20040408-r1. Ugly, but it works.
Created attachment 42121 [details, diff] patch to tcpdump-3.8.3-r1.ebuild to use -O1 on ppc
reopening
the stable compiler is gcc-3.4.1-r3
tcpdump works with the stable compiler.
