 Operating System: FreeBSD 4.11
 PHP Version:      5.1.4
 New Comment:

I hoped the the category 'copile failure' explain what the problem is.
The description says why the gcc fail during compilation sources
(because of unknown option passed to it), the summary say's it also.
The description suggest fix also - check if option is supported then
don't call gcc with it if don't.
What kind of information I missed to reveal ?

>It should not be used when not supported.
Is there any problem with this option? 
If no, then what's the problem? 
If yes, then is it a secret?

Description:
------------
old gcc (2.95.4) avaiable on some older OSes (FreeBSD 4.x) doesn't know
the prefer-pic/no-prefer-pic option. It's used in several places,
especially in configure.in pre-script. It should not be used when not
supported.

Reproduce code:
---------------
N/A

Expected result:
----------------
N/A

Actual result:
--------------
N/A
