Debugging options are used for debugging, that's right. But I don't agree
that CMake can give wrong results when run in debug mode. Take the
`--debug-trycompile' option for example, CMake can leave separate
build/source files with different filenames in the temp directory for each
call of TRY_COMPILE.
