I can think of some: - wanting to be sure that setting hardening flags on these packages through the dpkg-buildflags mechanism will actually work; - guaging whether the mechanism has reached the level of adoption to warrant inclusion in policy; - wanting to be able to work around new toolchain changes (think: -fno-strict-aliasing a couple of years ago); - wanting different flags on some machines (like Ubuntu's -O3 on ppc, though I don't understand why); - generally speaking, wanting DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt, DEB_CFLAGS_APPEND, etc to work widely. Checking is the obvious way to make sure it actually happens. > Yeah, cc-ing [email protected] which might be more relevant.
