I wonder if gcc has become confused about the CPU which vmware is presenting to it, and is trying to use instructions which are not actually supported. But I've no idea how vmware can be configured. Perhaps using lscpu (or the output of '/proc/cpuinfo' for 1 core) will show that the host and the vm report differently, particularly in the flags. But -O2 should normally offer non-fancy generic optimizations. ĸen -- This email was written using 100% recycled letters. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
