Being the OP in this case, I want to state that I didn't want "-Os for all pkgs". I just decided to set "-Os" inside my CFLAGS, and I am perfectly happy with any working gcc resulting from this. This isn't only about control, this is also about trust: I may control which settings to use for any pkg, but then I also have to trust the decisions of the maintainers which choices they made for individual pkgs (apart from overriding their settings, which somehow questions the usage of portage IMO). In fact, from my point of view, I am *allowed* to trust in this. Stefan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
