It looks like I can do this with this
make CXXFLAGS="-g -O0" By default the build uses -O2 and for gdb we need -O0. I think defining this flag will do the trick.

We want to build a debug version of log4cxx for our FreeBSD boxes so we can properly analyze the core dumps with gdb. What's the trick in build a debug version of log4cxx? Can both the debug and release versions be installed on the same system?
