>  - do not add -g to CFLAGS unconditionally
>    we need to have a look if it is really needed (IMO not) or if there

Nobody complained so far, so I try to commit this tomorrow. Note: the  
date in the man page will be bumped (in cases someone notices that  
this is missing in the patch).

Bye,
Alexander.
