Overriding CFLAGS at runtime

Hello! When I run make GRUB_CFLAGS=-g I expect that the GRUB shell will be built without optimization (because I'm going to debug it). However, the -O2 option is not suppressed, since it's hardcoded in stage2/Makefile.in It is generally a good idea to use $(FOO) instead of @FOO@ in

make GRUB_CFLAGS=-g I expect that the GRUB shell will be built without optimization (because I'm going to debug it). However, the -O2 option is not suppressed, since it's hardcoded in stage2/Makefile.in I don't think -O2 disables you from debugging it. Do you have another reason?
