The Linux 64bit debug builds are huge. This is due to 64bit using Dwarf2 debug format in the
object files. The fastdebug builds could benefit from using -g1 which provides minimal
debug information (reducing the size of .o and .so files), and might speed up builds a little.
The 32bit Linux uses stabs debug format, which seems to be compacted when it ends up in the
.so files and isn't as big a problem.

The debug builds would not change, only the fastdebug builds, and only on 64bit Linux.

The j2se makefiles and the hotspot makefiles would need to change.
