I don't know at that time. I asked the user to filter out his CFLAGS
and LDFLAGS and to try again, and he didn't answered at that time.

All I know is I don't get this issue and I use the recommended global
USE flags for my arch which are
 "-march=native -O2 -pipe"
and nothing more. The other compilation flags used by portage will be
the ones from their respective sources, if they are not filtered out by
the ebuild.

My main issue with that ebuild, as my other messages show it, is to
bullet-prof the dependencies.

Best,
Dominique
