The effect would be disastrous for people handling bug reports from
Debian users submitted to http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/ :)

If you want to change a flag, I would suggest that you try to get it
changed in the GCC distribution rather than doing Debian specific
changes.

OK. I have filed two new bug reports in GCC's bugzilla:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34117
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34118

If you support these requests, please post a comment in these bugs.
The more supporters, the more likely it is that GCC maintainers will
accept the change. I anticipate some opposition, too, along the lines
of "it breaks backward compatibility" and "it is too CPU-intensive".
