Hello *,

recently I tried to compile the tcl,tk and expect ports
with some other CFLAGS than the default of -O. I tried
by exporting environment variables, like

% CFLAGS="-m486 -O2 -fno-strength-reduce"
% export CFLAGS
% make

as well as

% make CFLAGS="-m486 -O2 -fno-strength-reduce"

but the CFLAGS did not make it through. It still used -O.
When I compile a GNU program, the latter approach does it.
Why is a "port" make apparently not passing CFLAGS?
Or am I missing something obvious?

Bye, Jens
