I should probably add that I'm building these on my local machine
which isn't completely updated to Rawhide.  I'm not sure whether or
not that will make a difference - I'm assuming _not_ for what the
OCaml compiler generates (since I'm running the latest of that), but
not sure about the rest of the toolchain.  I'm using
binutils-2.34-3.fc32.x86_64.

In fact it *isn't* passing -g to as:

$ /usr/bin/ocamlopt.opt -c -w +a-3-4-9-41-45-67 -g -annot -safe-string -o 
hacha.cmx hacha.ml -S -verbose
+ as  -o 'hacha.o' 'hacha.s'

Is this a problem?  I sort of assumed that as would have nothing to do
with generating debug information, beyond what is contained explicitly
in the .s file itself.
