I can remove Debian's -g flag easily enough (CFLAGS from 
dpkg-buildflags).

But you can see in the log that -g is invoked twice in the gcc call.

The first -g comes from the default compiler flags invoked by setup.py 
when compiling an extension.  I can't see how to control or remove this 
one.  The distutils.Extension documentation is sparse. Do you know how 
to control it?
