You can use --extra-cflags --extra-cxx-flags to change the compilation
options. However, please do not distribute these binaries unless you
tell the people downloading them to go to you for bug reports. If you
distribute these binaries, the people using them will probably not
know to recompile with standard options and confirming that the bug
exists in that build.
