Yes, You have used '-O3' flag which triggers -finline-functions Default inline heuristics just cannot fit well for all, and thus are subject to change from time to time. See [1] and [2] for more information on this topic. To fix that, You have few choices: o use -O2 o tweak inlining heuristics yourself (see [3]) o use -fprofile-generate/-fprofile-use, like this: $ cd john-1.6.38/src $ make CFLAGS='-c -O3 -fprofile-generate' LDFLAGS=-fprofile-generate linux-x86-64 $ ../run/john --test $ make clean $ make CFLAGS='-c -O3 -fprofile-use' LDFLAGS=-fprofile-use linux-x86-64 [1] http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-03/msg00333.html [2] http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-03/msg01936.html [3] http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#index-param-571 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
