At this point you've sort of convinced me that we should add -Os to
DEBUG as well. It *doubly* aligns DEBUG_GCCxx_X64_CC_FLAGS with the
status quo: first with GCC+IA32, second with non-GCC+X64.

The gdb setup for GCC+X64 is so contrived at the moment *anyway* that
removing -Os from the build flags as a further step is practically no
additional burden. If we become serious about it, we can always
introduce NOOPT later, further aligning GCC with other toolchains on
IA32 and X64.

Aaargh. I've run into (independent) varargs problems with OpenSSL in
edk2 before, so I'm not sure how my testing missed this!

Ah wait, I may know how -- I think I wanted to use EnrollDefaultKeys.efi
as a starting point for SB testing too, but I didn't get as far with it,
because -O2 in your v1 triggered a latent bug in the app.

... So, with your next update, we won't just distinguish "builtin" from
"no-builtin" for VA_LIST, we'll also distinguish "MS" from "SYSV" within
"builtin:. :(

<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50818> just got twice as
annoying. :( :(

I guess I'll delay my testing until your v3. Is that okay with you?

Thanks
