We only support -O1.  All other values are known to be broken in
various ways.  Parts of the kernel rely on dead code elimination to
avoid warnings; parts of userland play pointer games which the ISO C
standard does not permit; some inline asm code may be broken in ways
that only affect code compiled with -O2 or higher.

Note that -O2 and -O3 used to produce incorrect code in some cases,
but AFAIK these issues have all been fixed in gcc, and the remaining
bugs are in our own code.

I fixed those this morning.

No.  It has nothing to do with Project Evil.
