I'm tempted to blame GCC 4.1, which is known to have optimization issues. I'm not sure there's much to be done on pixman's side. I think waiting for GCC 4.3 to go stable is the best way forward. @toolchain, what say you? Thanks Another idea would be just to disable SSE without SSE2 for now. But I don't know what users of gcc 4.3 would say about that. Or maybe the ebuild should give the same error as for USE=sse2 with gcc 4.1 for USE=sse, too. Anyway it is not a huge issue as there is an easy workaround. 8-) I don't know if the following is related or not. But after changing from netscape-flash to adobe-flash on AMD64 no movie plays more than 30s and there is a very high load. How is this with gcc-4.3? |
