Hello, In LFS, the --disable-libmpx flag was recently added to allow Skylake-equipped Intel CPUs (and later generations) to build GCC. This was needed due to removal of MPX support in the kernel, and it will be removed entirely in GCC9.
As far as I know, I'm the only editor with a Skylake+ system with MPX - I was the one who reported it in LFS. For consistency purposes and to avoid breaking GCC in BLFS prior to 8.3's release, should we add the --disable-libmpx option to the Ada page and the GCC base page? I don't have a problem testing it since it directly affects my system, but I'd like to know soon so that I can continue straight to that page after finishing my tagging if I need to. Douglas R. Reno
