Hello, 

> This overwrites the default cflags. Is that what you want? The default for configure.cflags is configure.optflags, whose default is -O2. So by overwriting, you're no longer getting optimizations. You might want to append to cflags to retain them instead.

You are totally right, I just overlooked it. Corrected in r103203.
Thanks for the comment.

Looks like the check is in configure.in; seems like configure was not regenerated from configure.in before the 1.2.1 release -- or, looking at the comment at the top of the configure file, at all after the 1.0.0 release:

Not yet, but will do it. I upgraded it with other ports I wanted to look at, and did not take the time to do report it upstream yet. Will correct that soon.
