Just my 2 cents.  Even on the primary targets, bootstrap with other
than '-g -O2' are not so well tested.  Most packages are built with
-O2, aren't they?  After all, -O1 should work but not safer than -O2,
IMO.  O2 does many optimizations, and some of them might cause bug.
OTOH, some of them simplify the intermediate code.  With -O1, we could
see highly complex intermediate code in some cases and they might cause
problem.  We have just seen an example in this PR.
