Dear list, The Sage project (http://www.sagemath.org) has recently hit an interesting snag : its developers using Debian testing began to encounter difficulties compiling the flint package (http://groups.googl e.co.uk/group/flint-devel) with gcc 2.6.0.
One of us found (seeĀ https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sage-devel/TduebNo ZuBE/sEULolL0BQAJ) that this was bound to a conflict between the -pie option (now default) and an undocumented -r option. We would like to know what is this -r option, what it does and why it is undocumented. Sincerely yours, Emmanuel Charpentier PS Could you Cc me of your answers ? I'm not usually following this list.
