Thanks, attached is a version that introduces EXTRA_FLAGS instead.

This is OK.

Thanks.

Thanks, committed.

On a related issue, it looks to me that the compiler itself should be
compiled with -funwind-tables, otherwise there are no backtraces
generated, even if libbacktrace is linked in and operational. Again,
x86_64-linux-gnu host defaults to this flag, but other hosts are left
behind.

Uros.

Compiling with C++ should always give us -funwind-tables.

If it doesn't for some reason, then I agree.  We might even want
-fasynchronous-unwind-tables for the compiler.

It doesn't give that, because the compiler is compiled with
-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti.

I believe in the long term we would to drop either of those.
