Would it be a good idea to allow for extra_compile_arg(ument)s in the build_clib
command. I find I need this when I want to compile with symbols, 
but don't want full debugging.

I think that this can be done using something like

        extra_args = build_info.get('extra_compile_args',[])
        if os.environ.has_key('CFLAGS'):
        extra_args.extend(string.split(os.environ['CFLAGS']))
        objects = self.compiler.compile(sources,
                                output_dir=self.build_temp,
                                macros=macros,
                                include_dirs=include_dirs,
                                debug=self.debug,
                                extra_postargs=extra_args)

near line 225 in build_clib.
