 Yes, but I don't think it's special. The rule, missing in the list above, 
would be 'debug/dbgutils -> optimizations disabled'. So as soon as 
there's --enable-debug, nothing would get -O2, regardless of symbols.

 That's actually one more reason why I think -g should be primarily controlled 
by --enable-symbols and not --enable-debug.
