It’s not needed. We dropped it in Alchemy when adding 64-bit support, and it continues to run fine. /FIXED:NO just ensures that code can be position independent. Maybe at some point this was needed a long time ago for apr hijinks or Windows98 compatibility or something of that nature, but you can safely remove it.

I'm working with Nat Linden on the 64 bit viewer build and we've been encountering an odd error - A number of projects in 64 bit only configurations have an entry for "Force Includes" files set to XED:NO. Nothing on Google so we were stumped for a while but eventually tracked it down to a number of lines in CMakeLists.txt files of the form: add_definitions(/FIXED:NO). Evidently, /FI is the compiler command to include a forced header file - hence the XED:NO entry. You can see one here: https://bitbucket.org/lindenlab/viewer64/src/3f7ba2a06e5cea596e3a4006d57e3fbc4703d90f/indra/llcommon/CMakeLists.txt?at=default&fileviewer=file-view-default#CMakeLists.txt-248
The FIXED command is evidently for the linker and not the compiler but I'm not sure (a) if it's needed or (b) if it is, how to direct it at the right place.
Has anyone else encountered this and already and figured it out?
