Do we actually get a lot of crash reports with stack traces? In
the ones that I've seen the limited information that -g1 produces
was enough to identify where the problem was, I don't remember any
instance where having all the information would make such a big
difference, and considering the size of the debugging packages I was
more afraid that this would turn people away...

That said, for amd64 at least it probably makes sense.
