Description Gabriel 2004-12-02 11:17:03 UTC 
When "-mfpmath=sse,287" is in the CFLAGS when compiling GTK2, at least one bug (autoscroll sticking to the middle of the window--a known problem from GAIM) occurs.  I'm just hoping this cflag will be replaced (with "") in future GTK2 ebuilds.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put "-mfpmath=sse,287" in CFLAGS.
2. emerge gtk+.
3. open a GAIM conversation window and chat.

Actual Results:  
On each new line added to the text box, the text box's scrollbar would move to
about line 12, but only after about 20 lines have been added.

Expected Results:  
Scrolled to the bottom of the text box.

I've only encountered this problem when using GAIM, as it's the only program I
have which makes use of this feature.

Well this particular CFLAG is broken by default to my knowledge, so we're not gonna strip it. Your set of CFLAGS are your responsibility.

And i see some more questionable CFLAGS in your list for that matter.
