| 6 | | In the webkit-gtk portfile (which provoked this), I note the line "platform powerpc {". If this is only invoking options based on the compile time CPU, would a line like "target powerpc {" for the runtime CPU, be a base solution by providing a way of implementing patches and flags required when there is sometimes a difference between compile & execute CPUs? Moreover, such a facility might permit easy testing (or back tracking) before (after), a change like -Os goes live? This sort of facility is what I first went looking for when I found https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37839 |
