Should a goal of ArchLinux be that the core and extra repos build without error.

I am rebuilding all the packages from core and some selected packages from extra to take advantage of my processor an AMD Athlon processors, which I use exclusive.

I have used makeworld from a make file and there are several PKGBUILDs that do not build or build incorrectly. Some of the packages fail because of gcc-4.3.2. I have since patched those.

Report this upstream (the packages ypstream) if this hasnt been reported yet. Make a bug report for each package you found not building in the Archlinux bugtracker. Attach patches for the ones you have managed to build. Greg
