OK, so it's already enabled by "-O2":

" -fomit-frame-pointer
... This is mainly useful on x86 as most other arches, like AMD64, have
it on by default at -O2 or greater, though binary size may increase
slightly."

Mmmm, slightly turgidly explained, as can be lost of meaning in the
Shakespearian-esq...


(There must have been quite a log-jam of emails from the maillist last
night. Thanks for the replies that came in this morning.)

Cheers,
Martin
