On the systems listed above (except for the HP-PA, for ISC on the
386, and for @samp{mips-sgi-irix5.*}), if you use the GNU assembler,
stage2 of the 3-stage bootstrap of the compiler are deleted as
soon as they are no longer needed.

If you want to save additional space during the bootstrap and in
the final installation as well, you can build the compiler binaries

roughly 40% of disk space both for the bootstrap and the final installation.
(Libraries will still contain debugging information.)

+ LIBCXXFLAGS='-g -O2 -fno-implicit-templates' bootstrap

If you wish to use non-default GCC flags when compiling the stage2 and
stage3 compilers, set @code{BOOT_CFLAGS} on the command line when doing
@samp{make bootstrap}. Non-default optimization flags are less well
simplest way to do so is by providing @option{--with-as} and
@option{--with-ld} to @file{configure}, e.g.@:
-@samp{configure --with-as=/opt/ctl/bin/cam --with-ld=/opt/ctl/bin/cld
