You may be right - it would indeed complicate packaging, and the speed
gain is not that spectacular.
Maybe providing the list of optimization options (-O, -mcpu, -mtune,
-ffast-math etc.) as a string would be kind of beneficial (letting the
advanced users know if they want to compile the packages on their own).
Or maybe nobody would use it. I really can't tell.
