GCC_FLAG always set to -g, can that be changed via a configure call/environment variable setting?

Hi Folks,

        I'm compiling cfengine on HP-UX using gnu C.  While running
configure, it looks like configure hard sets the GCC_CFLAG to 

        GCC_CFLAG="-g -O2 -Wreturn-type -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wuninitialized"


        if the gcc compiler is found and the compiler is
working/available.  Without going in and editing configure or the
resulting Makefile, is there a way to get configure to NOT add -g to
GCC_CFLAG?  Best bet would be to allow GCC_CFLAG to be set like CFLAGS
can be.  I.e. './configure GCC_CFLAG="-O2"' or what have you.  That
doesn't appear to work as configure never checks to see if the user
supplied GCC_CFLAG; at least as far as I can see. 

        Unless I'm missing something, it looks like it always compiles
with debug turned on for gnu C.

        Thanks!
