Ah, I understand it now: Debian indeed compiles with -O2 by default. > So I would be grateful if you could adopt the exception rule, simply > for smooth syncing. I will not maintain packaging code purely for working around deviations in derivatives of Debian. Sorry, I understand that it would simplify your work, but I will not be burdenened by derived work not passed upstream to Debian. Also, I just now notice that you did not file this as a bugreport. Please use the bugtracker in the future, as that helps track isses most efficiently.
