            Bug ID: 114655
           Summary: -flto=4 at link time does not override -flto=auto from
                    compile time
           Product: gcc
           Version: 14.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: lto
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It looks like we now cleverly "merge" IL and link-time -flto, prefering
=auto or larger =N.  That makes it no longer possible to debug with less
jobs active.

IMO link time -flto should override any compile-time setting.
