The above comment needs to be updated.

The user's $(CFLAGS) is already added at the end, so the -O2 can already be
overridden, e.g. with -O0.  Is your concern just that this is bad practice?

Also, did you intentionally leave $(CFLAGS) at the end, rather than remove it as
might be expected?

-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is required for correctness.
So I think this part is good as-is.
