It is not that simple. a) we are using unchanged gnulib Makefile which knows nothing about HOST_CFLAGS, which means, gnulib is compiled with different flags. depbase=`echo xsize.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'`;\ gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../intl -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -MT xsize.o -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o xsize.o xsize.c &&\ mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Po So we actually *do* want CFLAGS to be used here, except that b) automake always adds CFLAGS to compile command, this is quite deep and I do not know how it can be changed. So any attempt to also set CFLAGS will pollute target compile command that we do not want. So far solutions I can think of are 1) patch gnulib Makefile to use HOST_CFLAGS 2) remove gnulib from SUBDIRS and explicitly call it with CFLAGS=$(HOST_CFLAGS) 3a) make sure CFLAGS == HOST_CFLAGS in configure results 3b) ensure that CFLAGS is set to empty string in Makefile We will probably need 3b anyway to avoid unintentional pollution of target options. Otherwise I tend to consider 1 or 2 as this means "make HOST_CFLAGS=xxx" will apply to both grub and gnulib.
