Most architectures already uses -pipe - see arch/*/Makefile: [sam@mars v2.5]$ ls arch/*/Makefile | xargs grep -l -- -pipe | wc -l 17 [sam@mars v2.5]$ ls arch/*/Makefile | wc -l 21 Sam - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
