Dear Michael Schwingen,

Do these need to be architecture specific? Probably not.
I do remember that we needed architecture-dependent debug options on a system I worked on in the past, because the preferred debug format was different on different platforms (all using gcc/binutils/gdb).
Can you please be a bit more specific here?
I can only tell from memory, since this was some years ago - IIRC, we needed dwarf debug info on some platforms and stabs on others. I can't provide exact details, since the current toolchains work fine without such tweaking - I only wanted to point out that if you need to specify the exact debug format, then it might be platform-specific.
A simple "-g" should be fine in the common area.
