I don't believe that the doc that you are basing your decisions on is correct. Anyway, basing such decisions automagically on the optimization level is very non-obvious. Maybe it is a better idea to introduce a special build flag (for autotools it would be something like --disable-running-from-build-tree or --enable-reproducible-build) that explicitly disables running from build tree and thus enables a reproducible build? -- Alexander E.
