- Subject: proposal: Default settings from environment
I'd like to propose a mechanism for setting defaults on gcc. My purpose is
that I am setting up a compute cluster, and I'd like to set default
optimizations appropriate for the processors.
I think an easy way to do this would be for gcc to read default values from
the environment. I imagine it would not be difficult to add such a patch.
Before I submit a patch, I'd like to know what others think about this idea,
or would anyone like to propose an alternative.
