This is bullshit. The FSF does not say anything about things like
this, because they are not directly involved in gcc development.
Better compile using G++-4.0. 4.1 fails with an
internal compiler
error compiling ToneStack.cc. I filed a bug for the debian G++-4.1
as instructed. G++-4.0 compiles fine.
Just edit the makefile and swap "-O3" with "-O2" in the OPTS
section. The FSF doesnt seem to be kidding when they say -O2 is the
only tested optimisation level for GCC. Released software should be compiled with
"-O2" IMHO.
This is true, though, since the Debian policy mandates it, unless
there's a good reason not to (e.g., it has been found to give a
significant performance advantage to use -O3).
