Hi Radim,

this was reported for Linux only since years. If the flag was missing,
no vector support would be there... (I never tried myself, just
collected reports).

This is all I know. It seems to be still existing as I built beta4 (or so)
without this flag set and had to re-publish the linux binaries with
ps.map properly compiled after receiving complaints.

Regards

 Markus
