That makes a big difference in backtraces in my experience. What I do sometimes is to compile without debug info and, when I need a backtrace, just recompile a few modules with -O, like: rm src/buffer.o src/bufferparams.o make CXXFLAGS='-g O' It is not perfect, but allows reasonable backtraces in a quick build.
