I think the issue is that with autoconf you setup your compiler flags (debug / optimized etc) for the entire build tree when you run ./configure. However, while developing you may want 90% to be optimized and only the remaining 10% (a single or a few subpackages) which you are actively debugging to be build with debuginformation. At least that's an issue I have ;) It is possible to add some magic to the makefiles which will allow you to build debug targets in an otherwise optimized build tree, but it's not exactly straightforward.
