You do realize that as of now, -g is the default for gcc? Was that the intent?
I was going to ask that myself. It seems strange to include -g by default --- we have --enable-debug, and that should control -g on all platforms.
Could it be that there ought to be a difference between the defaults of a devel CVS tree, a BETA tarball and a final "production" release?
