73 Because of an open bug in GCC, using ``DISTRO_FEATURES:append = " lto"`` or
74 adding ``-flto`` (Link Time Optimization) to :term:`CFLAGS` makes the resulting
75 binary non-reproducible, in that it depends on the full absolute build path
76 to ``recipe-sysroot-native``, so installing the Yocto Project in a different
77 directory results in a different binary.
