2.2.12 Makefile has now this setting: CFLAGS = -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer # use '-fno-strict-aliasing', but only if the compiler can take it CFLAGS += $(shell if $(CC) -fno-strict-aliasing -S -o /dev/null -xc /dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo "-fno-strict-aliasing"; fi) Mirek
