I can also confirm Xscreensaver (although I did it without -O, rather
than with -O1), it needs lower optimizations.

I guess the spells need something like this (from my mozilla[1]):

    case $ARCHITECTURE  in
        pentium4) CFLAGS="$(    echo  $CFLAGS    |  sed  s/-O3//  )"
                  CXXFLAGS="$(  echo  $CXXFLAGS  |  sed  s/-O3//  )"
                  ;;
        *)        ;;
    esac

Or is this issue big enough to justify a general way of doing this?

So far there are 4 spells with this issue.

Maybe a small function to be called like this:

  sedit_opts pentium4 s/-O3//

Technically it is a feature, but it needs to be in either spells or
sorcery, and sorcery (some lib of cause) means having only one
instance of the code.

[1] And speaking of features, could that nice little function from
mozillas[2] CONFIGURE script, configure_set_bool, not also be moved to
a library? It's nice, abstracted and well tested (been there a while,
and I know I've played a lot with my mozilla without it causing trouble).

[2] I was playing around with the 1.2 release[3] since you didn't ask.
Just wish the mozilla people would upload sources faster, I've been
playing with the cvs[4] stuff, and some things are just wierd.

[3] Except for svg support and calendar (both of which lacked some
files, due to me using a cvs pull), all apears well, and MathML seems
to work with XFT2 now.

[4] Mozilla cvs is wierd, modules and makefiles and stuff, and just
doing like they tell you to does not give you all that you need.
