6 | <para>This package is known to behave badly when you have changed its
|
---|
7 | default optimization flags (including the -march and -mcpu options).
|
---|
8 | Therefore, if you have defined any environment variables that override
|
---|
9 | default optimizations, such as CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, we recommend unsetting
|
---|
10 | or modifying them when building GCC.</para>

11 |
|

12 | <para>We will be building the C and C++ compilers at this time, so you'll
|

13 | need to unpack both the gcc-core and gcc-g++ tarballs. Other compilers are
|

14 | available in the full gcc package; instructions for building them may be
|
---|
15 | found at <ulink url="&blfs-root;view/cvs/general/gcc.html"/>.</para>

48 | install all of the glibc localedata. Using --enable-clocale=gnu ensures that
|
---|
49 | the "right thing" is done in all cases. If you don't wish to use this option,
|
---|
50 | then at least build the <emphasis>de_DE</emphasis> locale. When GCC finds
|

51 | this specific locale, then the correct locale mode (<emphasis>gnu</emphasis>)
