hi there,
because i'm doing a lot of debugging lately i thought it might be a good idea
to build world (in addition to the kernel) with debugging symbols. what i've
done is add
CFLAGS+= -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -g
to /etc/src.conf, because having -g in CFLAGS in /etc/make.conf would also
build everything else (ports e.g.) with debugging symbols which i don't really
need/want.
make buildworld however fails due to the fact that building the bootloader
with -g exceeds the allowed maximum bootloader size by 545 bytes.
any suggestions on how to successfully build world with debugging symbols are
welcome.
cheers.
alex
