I doubt that. The alternative gcc part is built in a sub-jam and besides the list of optional packages nothing is propagated to it. I'm undecided whether it is worth having this build profile at all. The list of DEBUG exceptions could as well be moved to BuildSetup and then the same effect could be reached by running {{{ DEBUG=1 HAIKU_IMAGE_NAME=haiku-debug.image HAIKU_IMAGE_SIZE=650 jam @image }}} Since I can't think of anyone being interested in building such a debug image that seems good enough to me. The BBlockCache fix looks OK and could be applied regardless. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8252#comment:6> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
