(-fno-cse-skip-blocks for MACHINE_ARCH =3D=3D arm)

This works for me. Three questions:

- the bug you cite above also shows on ia64 and m68k, wouldn't this apply
  to us also?

- shouldn't this be applies to the global mk.conf (or another appropriate
  place) for arm, until the compiler can be fixed? If this is a compiler
  error, it should eventually show up elsewhere?

- If this is expected to only show up with perl, should I (or somebody else)
  commit the workaround to pkgsrc?
