Boy, I'm not being very clear today. Sorry guys.
I meant keep the current default but have a means to disable each flag
using some "standard" enable/disable option. Now that I've thought
about it a bit more, I realize that it's not a big deal to just set
the CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS. So, I'll change my question. Would it be
worthwhile to add a "--enable-debug" and a "--enable-optimize=level"
set of configure script options? Thinking about it now, I realize
that this may break some existing configure scripts since they may
already implement these options.
There was mention of the CVS autoconf handling this differently. What
does it do?
Sorry for the noise guys. I just needed to talk this thing through.
