Hmmm...it turns out that avr32-gcc does in fact not pass on any
--gdwarf2 option to the assembler when using -g. Of course, if this is
only true for AVR32, we can fix this, but I'm a bit concerned that this
behaviour is arch-specific.

FWIW, here's a patch to remove the -Wa,-g option. If you decide to go
for it, I'll make sure the AVR32 toolchain gets fixed.

Subject: [PATCH] Don't pass any debug options directly to the assembler

When passing the -g option to gcc, gcc automatically selects a suitable
--g<format> option to pass on to the assembler. Thus, there's no point
in forcing a specific debug option on the assembler using the -Wa
mechanism.
