I can't see why we would have kept --enable-debug if we intended to make
-g be default anyway. Backwards compatibility is not an issue, because
configure simply ignores --enable switches it doesn't recognize (another
questionable autoconf design decision, but I digress). And if you are
setting CFLAGS for yourself, you are surely capable of adding -g to it
if you want; why would you type seven times as much to accomplish the
same thing?
