Comment:

 True, but thats the case here:

  1. brokenness of -O3 on itanium is discussed on the gcc bug ticket and
 definitely a compiler bug.
  2. gcc-4.4.1 with >= `-O2` just starts using all available memory until
 it dies.

 My suggestion would be to just catch those two cases. And add a useful
 error message to the spkg in case pari fails to compile, explaining how to
 report this and how to work around it by compiling the pari spkg with
 different CFLAGS.
