I'm still trying to figure out why everybody keeps suggesting to pass -g. Even if autoconf does it by default (which I don't think it should), that doesn't mean we should.

I think the idea is that if you build without -g then when things go boom you have no (or very little) info about where things went boom. Plus, the extra debugging info can always be removed post-build but it can't be inserted post-build.
