Description Simon Strandman 2005-01-26 12:12:41 UTC
Strip-flags removes -fvisibility-inlines-hidden from the CXXFLAGS but I think it would be a good idea to allow it. It's safe for most things and it has good effect on large C++ apps like mozilla and QT, that currently strips it. I have compiled QT, KDE, Mozilla and OpenOffce-ximian with it and it works perfectly.

Or at least on arches other than AMD64. AMD64 seems to have some really weird problems with it.
