 The patch is probably insufficient, it is just a first attempt.
 C_COMPILER_OPTIONS doesn't propagate everywhere, I think in particular not
 to the options stored in `chicken-config.h`.
 Also, to allow customization of compiler options when building, it is
 currently necessary to override C_COMPILER_OPTIMIZATION_OPTIONS, possibly
 nuking those options that are enabled by default (and which we know,
 work). The build should provide an initially empty setting for user-
 defined compilation options.
