Description
See the thread at the above URL. When BE-LFS was merged into trunk, the perl arch script was removed, but building of the arch binary in util-linux was not reinstated. This causes CH 6 perl to optimize at -O2 instead of -O3.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.

After a later post by Greg, and checking hints/linux.sh in the perl source, it looks like it no longer uses arch in any way to set the optimization level. Perl goes -O2 by default now, so this is a non-issue.
