Initial Package Version: 2.12b
Upstream Status: Not submitted - fixes GCC miscompilation
Origin: Created from troubleshooting on IRC
Description: When using GCC 3.4.{1,2}, the sfdisk program is miscompiled,
causing a seek error to be output.  Troubleshooting narrowed the problem down
to the fact that Util-Linux by default uses the -O2 optimization level,
which includes the unit-at-a-time optimization, exposing this problem.  This
patch passes -fno-unit-at-a-time to the sfdisk, fdisk, and cfdisk programs,
resolving this error.  Developed by Matthew Burgess, Ronald Hummelink, and
Jeremy Utley.
