Category : install: compile
Severity : serious

Summary: Would not build with -O2 flags set

System Configuration
--------------------
Operating System : Linux 2.2.3 ELF RedHat 5.1

PostgreSQL version : 6.4.2

Compiler used : gcc 2.7.3

Hardware:
---------
DEC Multia 21066A, 64M RAM

Versions of other tools:
------------------------
egcs 1.0.3
make 3.7.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem Description:
--------------------
Several targets in the backend/utils/adt directory could not be built with the optimize more (-O2) flags set. datetime.c and dt.c I'm sure about, I don't know about any others because I removed -O2 from CFLAGS in Makefile.global and was able to build. I don't relly care about optimum performance (I'm running on a 166MHz Alpha 21066A) so I didin't spend the time to compile individual targets with and without optimization. I couldn't build the ODBC interface (-O2 flag not set) at all. I haven't tried to build it independently of the postgresql build yet. TCL & Perl worked fine.

Test Case:
----------

Solution:
---------
Turn off -O2 in CFLAGS
