can you be a little more specific? I was just using 
CXXFLAGS+=-O3 
before I thought the aliasing issues because of type
casting could cause issues and so -fno-strict-aliasing
was what you had to do to make optimization above
level 1 work rigt. At least thats what reading about
-fno-strict-aliasing seemed to get at with FreeBSD
specifically. 

should it be
CXXFLAGS+=
dafaulting to O2 with no strict aliasing? given my 
CFLAGS=-pipe -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing

I know doing 
make -j5 buildworld or buildkernel or just about
anything else would/used to puke things. But I haven't
seen any issues with MAKEOPTS doing that. Perhaps
until now? I know specifically make -j5 on the shell
would cause the build to skip the build and fail on
the install or skip the build of the objects and fail
on linking the uncompiled library.
