I've committed this with one change (omitting the -O3 thing that's
really optional) and another related fix.

Note however that overriding CFLAGS at make time is still a bad idea.
It will suppress all the warning options configure detected and other
useful but non-essential things like -fno-unwind-tables and
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables. We should probably discuss whether
this behavior is desirable. We could factor out all of the stuff
configure detects into a CFLAGS_AUTO and leave CFLAGS just containing
the user-provided options. Opinions?
