Not being sure whether you need to know the flags, or how to use them with the Debian package build system, like make-kpkg etc. If you simply want some flags: From my bookmarks: <http://www.freehackers.org/gentoo/gccflags/flag_gcc3.html> <http://www.freehackers.org/gentoo/gccflags/flag_gcc3opt.html> <http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/RS_002f6000-and-PowerPC-Options.html#RS_002f6000-and-PowerPC-Options> <http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/compiling/safe-cflags/> <http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/compiling/unsafe-cflags/#toc1> But I'd have a look at the sources you want the flags being fed into, and whether the flags described on the pages above are not already used there ... :) If you want to know how to feed the flags to, e.g, make-kpkg for a "live" compile, then I can't help.
