Building OpenJDK with debuginfo

I noticed that debugging IcedTea is difficult, and I've found the core
problem: ecj defaults to generating minimal debuginfo, basically just
line numbers. GNU/Linux distributions usually have a rule that
debuginfo is enabled for all packages, and I can't think of any reason
not to do that now with IcedTea. Debuginfo is going to be non-negotiable
in a real release package anyway.
So, I'll fix the Makefiles to use "-g" throughout.
Andrew.
