According to the author, the failure with -Os and amd64 is a gcc problem. While I had believed this to have been fixed in gcc 3.4.5, there are similar open bugs in gcc bugzilla. The current version of rxvt-unicode is 7.5, which works fine with -O2. Created attachment 84261 [details, diff]
patch against rxvt-unicode-7.7-r1.ebuild
This is confirmed, it causes nasty segfaults. I spoke with the author, and the problem really is -Os (which is what I'd like to use). So I think that while they fix the gcc bug, we can replace -Os with -O2.
This pach against the current 7.7-r1 ebuild does the trick.
Ah, I forgot: this is not a AMD64 bug, since is verified also on x86. |
