 I know this is an old issue, but I am hoping that this could be
 reconsidered.
 
 I have also been tripped up by this, and, like Frank, think that removing

 For what it's worth, at one stage the macports project also removed the
 CMake optimisation flags, then re-instated them because:
 
 The consequence of having a few cmake macports compiling with '-O3' is much

 For details see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40648
