I wouldn't say that was relevant to breakpoints working (or not) in debug mode.

I just want to know if some optimization flags are SUPPOSED to be there or is it up to the distribution's maintainers. Or maybe it's supposed to be empty after all?

It depends on where do you have Qt from. If you installed it from the verbatim package downloaded from Nokia then you should have the defaults. But if you installed it through a package manager for your distro, the maintainer of the package might have changed some of the specs (I don't say that is the case). Take a look at the mkspecs directory of your installation and compare it to the Makefile generated by qmake. See if the variable values are consistent.
