Still I think this interferes *a lot* in an area that should the package
maintainer's prerogative.

As of today, we do not have patches to build glibc with frame pointers
on most architectures.  Someone said on the ticket that they have done
it, but they haven't upstreamed their patches.  The individual changes
may be tiny, but just for x86-64, roughly 500 assembler files need
patching.  I just don't see us maintaining this as a downstream-only
patch.  And without these patches, the most widely used glibc functions
(by executed instructions) won't have frame pointers.

Thanks,
Florian
