I don't know. This behaviour comes from the kde autotools package, which is 
found in the admin/ dir and updated from time to time. We could probably try 
to override this in configure.in.in, but I don't know how. Daniel maybe?

Plus, I think the KDE guys probably thought about this too... I didn't even 
know that optimization and debugging can conflict...
You can definitely override the compiler settings with CXXFLAGS by hand.
