Subject: build: compile translate.o with -fno-gcse option on GCC 4.6.x and 4.7.[012]
X-Git-Tag: qemu-xen-4.3.0-rc1~17^2~21
X-Git-Url: http://xenbits.xensource.com/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cbdd1999daf2341b33d3ba8036fd84898e1e7c31;p=qemu-upstream-4.4-testing.git

build: compile translate.o with -fno-gcse option on GCC 4.6.x and 4.7.[012]

These versions of GCC require insane (>2GB) amounts of memory to compile
translate.o.  As a countermeasure, disable the culprit optimization pass.
This should fix the buildbot failure for default_x86_64_fedora16.  Anyway
this is a good thing to do because people will try to compile 1.3 with
less than 2GB of memory and complain.
