How do you do that? We already have --disable-debug as an option. The mozilla
page says
ac_add_options --enable-optimize=-O2
Choose particular compiler optimization options. In most cases, this will
not give the desired results, unless you know the Mozilla codebase very well;
I think stripping after the build is less likely to give problems.
