Re: changing "configure" to default to "gcc -g -O2 -fwrapv ..."

This is a horrible idea.  Please do not cripple the compiler on projects
that use Autoconf because some people write code that makes assumptions it
shouldn't.  This would be like automatically adding -fpermissive to
CXXFLAGS or adding -fno-strict-aliasing to CFLAGS, and just as wrong.
