Is it? I was confident that AM_CFLAGS is unset by default, but CFLAGS
(from autoconf) is "-g -O2" by default.
And no you shouldn't change CFLAGS in configure.ac, please. That's an
user-assignable variable, distributions cry every time that we have to
patch a CFLAGS="$something" in configure.ac. Especially when that's to
set/unset -O and -g flags depending on a debug/release build (hint:
distributions want debug information with optimized builds as well!).
