Here as well, I'd like the commit log (and Config.in help text) to
include some explanations as to *why* one would want to do this.
Also, wouldn't we instead want a more global option that would also
work with external toolchains, where the compiler wrapper passes the
right gcc arguments ?
Best regards,
Thomas
