Both statements are true,
- we generally want the central build flags
- in this case they might conflict with the way the code operates
=> Discussion it is

Rom's are often trying really hard to replicate sometimes arcane behavior.
Strict control of the flags is part of it and worth reconsidering for that 
package.

Upstream is not willing to allow any flags, probably fed up with too
many things that turned out to be due to different flags used. And hence
they requested us to please consider removing the old change that does
so.

I have asked Jonas to work on this, create this bug for tracking and ask
security what they think, as it would also drop e.g. hardening flags.
