Just compile intrp.c separately.  Nothing else breaks with -O.

No, nntp got it wrong.  inews isn't something you want in the
usual path ("maybe" rnews, but not inews--if you're running as
rrn you won't have rnews).  In any case, the convention is to
use /usr/lib/news (/usr/news is reserved for a facility BSD
removed from their UNIX and replaced with "msgs").

When someone says "news" ... are they talking about news, Network
News, NeWS, or NEWS?  No wonder you're confused...
