    Please consider enabling frame pointers on 64 bit arches.

    Please see this entry in the dpkg FAQ:

    https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/FAQ#Q:_Can_we_add_support_for_new_default_build_flags_to_dpkg-buildflags.3F

    and if you are interested in pursuing this, then start the process,
    while I don't see any issue with enabling this, I'm not going to drive
    this myself.

    Thanks,
