Comment(by leif):

 I wonder if we really need the `make install-doc*` patch (TeX usage) since
 apparently all errors are ignored... ;-)


 I'd like to have ticket references also in `SPKG.txt` (Changelog).


 Trial building with `-O3`...`-O0` won't work if `initial_CFLAGS` already
 contain some (higher) optimization level (which I think isn't unlikely),
 since `$optflag` gets '''pre'''pended.
 I would start with `CFLAGS` as is, and then append `-O2` etc. in case the
 previous ''build'' failed. Also, we IMHO shouldn't retry if `configure`
 failed. (We could simply keep the `exit` in these cases.)


 I'm not sure if all platforms support `ulimit -v`, although Linuces (where
 GCC bugs showed up) certainly do. Perhaps we should test its exit status
 (and skip trial building if the platform does not).


 `test ... -ne ...` (etc.) is for '''numerical''' comparison, not for
 comparing strings.


 The changes aren't yet committed.
