Having -g shouldn't hurt since the debugging symbols end up on the
-dbg packages. Why having it "disabled" by default?

In the case of host packages, I disable debug symbols (don't want, takes up
space when shipping).  In the case of target stuff, we may want more debug
info to be available.  Or one may want to have less because again, it takes
up space when shipping.

I see but this could be overriden by distro, couldn't it?

That's why I'm asking for the -g part to be put into a variable so that it can be overriden easily, in all cases, without needing to know the special cases (ie glibc).
