	I'm on 14.2, that's why I'm raising the issue.

If nobody else has the same problem then it probably comes from my own box, but
the error does not point to an interference with another slackbuilded package...
	I don't have a problem with adding -fpermissive on my own DevIL
slackbuild, but if I need to tweak on my up-to-date-and-fully-patched 14.2
whereas other don't, then my box might be somehow broken...
	The problem might come from the multilib install, but again, I don't see
anything relevant to that in the error message.
