Everytime I run an emerge on anything I receive many notifications
throughout the process that read "gcc - unrecognized option '-03'"

Despite receiving these the emerge still works correctly and I'm
GENERALLY having no issues there.

However, if it's relevant I receive failures everytime time I attempt to
emerge GAIM and two or three various other packages.

Can anyone tell me if these are related or what I can do to fix either
of them? I've tried reading through the forums but haven't discovered
anything that I've been able to use as yet.

Just try with the letter 'O' for Optimize, not a '0' or zero.

Thanks for your help. How and where do I change that?

In the CFLAGS= of /etc/make.conf. That's where the default compiler flags
are stored, and where you must have made your typo in the first place.

Ok great, I just changed that and am emerging GAIM as we speak. The
emerge process has gone for longer that it ever has - i.e. it used to
cut out with emake errors so this seems to have fixed it... as it would
make sense to.

Question, should I be re-emerging any/all of my packages with the
correct make.conf? or just an emerge sync with the new .conf? It occurs
to me that if Gentoo had been using the wrong make configurations for
all my emerges then there will be unknown problems all over the system?

P.S. Thanks a lot for your help Leif.

I don't think that there would be any problems, as the -O flag is only a
way of telling the compiler what to optimize for. You may get a faster
system with an optimal optimization level (so to speak), so if you
really care, you could of course do a "nice emerge -e world" and let it
recompile your entire system in the background. However, as Gentoo is a
rolling upgrade system, most packages will probably be recompiled in
due time anyway. It's your decision.

You're welcome.

One final advice: Top-posting is considered bad form in this group, so
please try to adjust your quoting habits.
