Hello,
I can see miscellaneous test failing on 7.1 TL3, too ... if I use -O2.
With -O1 there is no problem.
These are the failing / working flags. This problem was discovered by IBM.
# make check error
export CFLAGS="-qsuppress=1500-010 -O2 -qmaxmem=16384 -qsrcmsg"
# make check ok
export CFLAGS="-qsuppress=1500-010 -O1 -qmaxmem=16384 -qsrcmsg"
They have forwarded this to the compiler development team in Toronto.
I think that we can ignore this here. I will post the outcome of this
problem.
So that we can include a note in the INSTALL.
Bye
Rainer
