In configuring X11R4 before rebuilding with the second set of fixes, I
see that LibraryCCOptions is defined as follows in sun.cf:

#define LibraryCCOptions /* don't want special floating point */

Is there a special reason for not wanting to compile the libraries
with the "-f68881" option other than the size of the files ?

I used to compile X11R3 with this option and never had any problems.
However, since it takes quite a long time to recompile the sources, I
would like to know this information in advance so as to avoid having
to compile it all twice.

Please respond to me directly as I am not a regular reader of this
newsgroup.  I fully intend to post a followup with the responses I
get.  Thanks!

BTW, here is the difference in size of the X11R4 server using GNU CC
vs using vanilla SUN CC.
