Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when packaging iPXE for Ubuntu, the build failed since Ubuntu enables
LTO by default, and this was added to the CFLAGS due to Debian's patch.

In the upstream bug report, developers requested that distributions
shouldn't change iPXE's CFLAGS at all since their compilation target is
boot ROMs.

Could Debian (& then Ubuntu) remove the CFLAGS adjustment as requested by 
upstream?
