222 <parameter>CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2"</parameter>: By default,
223 <application>Autoconf</application> sets CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to
224 "-g -O2". That results in binaries and libraries being built with
225 debugging symbols which make them bigger. Override the default
226 flags to omit -g compiler flag so the final libraries are smaller.

228
229 <para>
230 <parameter>--disable-gallium-egl</parameter>: This switch disables
231 the egl_gallium loader in favor of egl_dri2 loader which supports
232 both DRI and Gallium drivers.

234
235 <para>
236 <parameter>--enable-texture-float</parameter>: This switch enables
237 floating-point textures and render buffers. Please consult
