It uses override to do that, which, heh, overrides what's given on the command line. I successfully built linux-tools-3.7 with libunwind support and ARCH=x86_64 that way (libunwind support doesn't build without ARCH=x86_64 because it lacks the necessary -l flag which is only set with ARCH=x86_64) Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
