Description:
mysqlbug script that included in every package contains exact configure command line that was used for building of this package but it lacks details about actual values of CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS that were used.

How to repeat:
example from mysql-enterprise-5.0.50-linux-x86_64-glibc23 package

mysqlbug:

...
COMP_ENV_INFO="CC='ccache gcc'  CFLAGS=''  CXX='ccache gcc'  CXXFLAGS='' LDFLAGS=''  ASFLAGS=''"
CONFIGURE_LINE="./configure '--prefix=/usr/local/mysql' '--localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data' '--libexecdir=/usr/local/mysql/bin' '--with-comment=MySQL Enterprise Server (Commercial)' '--with-server-suffix=-enterprise' '--enable-thread-safe-client' '--enable-local-infile' '--with-pic' '--with-fast-mutexes' '--with-client-ldflags=-static' '--with-mysqld-ldflags=-static' '--with-zlib-dir=bundled' '--with-big-tables' '--with-yassl' '--with-libedit' '--with-archive-storage-engine' '--with-blackhole-storage-engine' '--with-csv-storage-engine' '--with-example-storage-engine' '--with-federated-storage-engine' '--with-innodb' '--with-extra-charsets=complex' 'CC=ccache gcc' 'CXX=ccache gcc'"

Analysis:
    When "scripts/mysqlbug.sh" is transformed into "scripts/mysqlbug"
    ("scripts/Makefile.am"), the "SAVE_*FLAGS" values are used.
    These are set to the initial values of "*FLAGS" as passed on the 
    "configure" call, so the later changes done by "configure" 
    (especially the setting of standard optimizer flags) are not 
    reflected.

  Modify "mysqlbug" ("scripts/mysqlbug.sh") so that it differs between the original
  and the modified values of the compile-related variables used in "configure".
  
  Make the necessary adjustments in "configure.in" and "scripts/Makefile.am".

CXXFLAGS that were used to configure the distribution.
