Set CXXFLAGS when you're compiling something for the build platform. > 2) How can I set compilation switches for gcc stuff (like the gcc/cobol > front end) without affecting lib*** stuff? In this case you're compiling something for the host platform and CXXFLAGS is the appropriate variable. You need to pass the various FLAGS on the 'make' command line instead of the 'configure' command line. -- Eric Botcazou
