Is there some large hurdle to having two sets of bdist packages, one set compiled with frame pointer support, and the other without? Like pkg vs. pkg-devel or pkg-src?

pkg-fp, and have the dependency network trigger other installations.

My guess is one package could trigger a whole cascade of -fp packages being installed as dependencies and basically reinstall your whole system.

The way to do it would be to treat -fp and -nofp as different archs.
