Hi all. I'm a Gentoo user with an Athlon XP:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ I'm experiencing segfaults with applications that use fontconfig, only if fontconfig is compiled with -fweb -ftracer. In full, I used: -march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe -fweb -ftracer I have seen a very similar bugs reported at: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147290 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135632 ... but they talk about -ftree-vectorize. The symptoms are the same anyway. If I rebuild fontconfig with: -march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe ... the segfaults are fixed. Comment #8 in https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135632 says that this is fixed in gcc-4.3, but possibly this was not fixed for athlon-xp? I can enter a bug with the above info if people want. Should I? Is there an existing bug / is it still a known issue? I can also rebuild with debugging symbols if it will help. Thanks. Dan
