Does this still occur on mysql 5.1.67?

The configure warnings listed are harmless.

Yes, this does still occur on 5.1.67.

Looking through the current build.log and the corresponding Makefile - actually, several of them... this is found:

CCASFLAGS =  -Wa,-O2 
-Wa,-mtune=native
-Wa,-pipe

There's no line continuing '\' appended to make that a single variable setting Make statement.  For whatever reason, the missing '\' characters are being stripped or never appended, or whatever.

My make.conf sets flags as follows:

CFLAGS="-O2 -mtune=native -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
ASFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
LDFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
OMPFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

If that is somehow broken...?

Confirmed that ASFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" is the culprit.

From what I read, you should unset it to defaults.

Closing as INVLAID as you shouldn't set ASFLAGS unless you know what you are doing
