That's very difficult, especially in projects with subdirectories that may redefine CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS w/o the builder noticing. sope/ogo is one nasty candidate for example. There are some safety pins in debuginfo, IIRC if it's turned on, but the debuginfo turns out empty the build will fail. That's how it gets my attention to fix debugging symbols at least :) -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
