But what I want is to tweak the configuration in EPICS base so that
linux-x86_64 is treated as if it were linux-x86_64-debug, so that
building with debug information is the default. What would be the
simplest way to achieve that?

For most architectures, setting HOST_OPT or CROSS_OPT to NO should be enough.

(Details to be found in the Base configuration files for the -debug architectures.)

Can be done in any configuration (preferably CONFIG_SITE type), Makefile, command line...
