Ok, I think I figured it out...I don't completely understand the logistics of
makefiles, but I changed the following line in Makefile.common:
Before:
CFLAGS = -O2 -Wall
After:
CFLAGS += -O2 -Wall
I suspect that a later assignment to CFLAGS was overwriting one of the other
two, but I could be wrong. Anyway, after cleaning and recompiling firmdl, I
can communicate and download the brickOS.srec now.
Also, the dll needs to be recompiled if you run into this error as well.
Excellent. Does this fix make sense? Since I am new to this open source
thing, what needs to be done to make sure this is the correct solution?
