Yes, well, that can be considered a bug.  The order indeed could be so 
that what user gives always stays first.  I shall fix this.  Are there no 
-O options with the compiler and if there are, don't they do the same 
thing the -xOn does?

That's weird.  All options are first checked that they work with the 
compiler.  So whatever option it puts there the compiler obviously have 
accepted.  That of course doesn't mean the options are correct options.

Could you please tell me what platform ./configure said you were using.  
And if you have figured out with what options the math library works could 
you tell me what they are.
