Not wanting to do real work today, I decided to play around with
building gcc-2.0 using gcc -O5 (ie - build stage 1 as normal, with the
system's C compiler, and then build stage2 with the CFLAGS "-O5
-Bstage1/" instead of "-g -O -Bstage1/"
I'm using mips-dec-ultrix. It seems to have worked ok. The .o files
compare out ok. I haven't benchmarked the compiler, but I hope it
made it faster - gcc 2.0 seems to be a bit on the slow side.
Why isn't the default gcc 2.0 build
gcc -O5
instead of
gcc -g -O
do that many people need to debug their compilers?
