Be careful of messing around with Icon's CFLAGS.  There is a strong possibility that some CFLAGS will break the interpreter. If the CFLAGS are changed ensure that   the Icon test suite gets a clean run.

(In reply to comment #1)
If striping the executables is the problem, the Makefiles can be altered to remove the strip command without hurting Icon.

The following two Makefiles would need to be patched to remove the strip command

src/icont/Makefile (two places)
src/runtime/Makefile (one place)

src/iconc is not used
src/rtt the executable is only used during the build process and is not installed. (The icon interpreter is written in RTL and rtt converts RTL language into C code)

please see the attachement in bug #209558, which fixes (all) the Makefiles.

[Comment 4 Markus Meier 2008-08-24 09:42:44 UTC]

prestripped files fixed in dev-lang/icon-9.4.3-r3.

This has been fixed a while ago, closing.
