+<para>This package is known to behave badly when you have changed its default
+optimization flags (including the -march and -mcpu options). Therefore, if you
+have defined any environment variables that override default optimizations,
+such as CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, we recommend unsetting them when building
+Grub.</para>
