Yes, using that from hydra will crash guitarix for me.
Same as: <https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/36248>.

I don't familiar with optimization flags, but according to:
  <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GCC_optimization#Optimizing>
I think '-march=native' should be dropped definitely, it enable all
the CPU specified instruction set when building on the slave.
And it's not clear to me what *some* flags are, suppose we don't want
any CPU specified (-msse3, -msse4, etc.) thing.
