--- Comment #5 from Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Hmm, that comment didn't read to me as an agreement against adding a configure option, if anything, Jakub appears to have suggested it. If I had to summarize that bug, it would be that some distributions (Suse) don't want to enable the option by default while others do, which sounds like a classic case for a configure option to exist.
