I took a quick look at the original issue in config_lno, and it seems to me that the simplest solution would be to reset the iter_threshold value in x8664/config_targ.cxx (e.g. we set some target-specific defaults in Preconfigure_Target). That way the change is only in the x86 branch.

Bergström Cc: open64-devel Subject: Re: [Open64-devel] Please help review a build broken fix for non-x86 targets [CG][LNO] just to be clear, what i suggested as a better solution is for any implementation of target specific stuff consists of at least two implementations, one generic and one specialize. This way, it will not break any build, while give the specific target the implementation the developer really wants. The actual implementation could be templates, or weak/strong symbols Naturally, any better solution is welcome. Let's put to rest any argument on Is_target_xxx or ifdef.
