Nah. The "extra flag" is already called --with-maintainer-mode (and yes, we
should change that to --enable-maintainer-mode; we'd want to do the same
within APR).

No reason to throw yet more in there. By definition, only developers are
using it, and we know how to add more flags. And as such, we can throw all
kinds of stuff in there.

Cool. We can certainly switch on the GCC version to add more flags. (we
already add those flags only when GCC is being used)
