Compile with i486 options give inproper content-length

[hp197]

I recompiled boinc with some extra compiler options, but now all requests to project sites & account manager will fail due a wrong content-length in the http header.

My compile options:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/boinc --disable-server --enable-static --disable-dependency-tracking --enable-bitness=32 CFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i486 -ffast-math -msse -mfpmath=sse -m32 -malign-double' CXXFLAGS='-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i486 -ffast-math -msse -mfpmath=sse -m32 -malign-double' --target=i486 --host=i486 --build=i486 --with-libcurl --with-ssl

See the content-length in the LOG, neat heah...

I can provide more info i you would like, and it is also possible to give shell access to the problem machine.

Sorry, tought it was the schedular ;)

Note: Its also with v6.1.7

-mailgn-double in c AND CXXFLAGS was the trouble maker. Case solved

[Eric Korpela]

This was due to a mismatch between compile flags specified on the configure command line for BOINC vs those used by libraries (libcurl in this case).
