Thanx for your replies.
Your initial answer is in contradiction to the documentation I've referenced
to you.
I thought it would be of some interest, since others might have encountered
the same problem.
In the section of documentation about the compiler flags (I think it is the
same as the manual pages - man gcc) I cannot clearly see your point.
The ongoing and (indeed to long and time consuming) discussion has primarly
one goal for me: To find the correct answer.
As you suggested, I think it is best to stop here. Others may contribute to
the discussion..

Again, thank you very much,

Regards,
