Heh. Part of me wants to admonish you again for turning a knob you didn't have a reason to turn, but part of me wants to thank you for demonstrating that this particular knob is broken and should be removed... > It also looks like "-pipe" is the > default?

The default value for PIPE has changed, but it's not broken like DEBUGLIBS is and is still useful (and used) by at least this developer. Removing DEBUGLIBS itself is a much larger diff...
