Description Steve Buzonas 2009-03-25 02:35:05 UTC

The work faster flag in GAS disables preprocessing which is needed to build glibc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.ASFLAGS="-Wa,-f" emerge =sys-libs/glibc-2.8_p20080602

Actual Results:  
Configure fails stating that assembler CFI is required.

Expected Results:  
-Wa,-f and -Wa,--fast should be stripped from asflags.

It would be nice if you posted diffs to the original files instead of the edited files.

you're injecting non-standard behavior into packages.  dont do that.
