 not enable optimisation. Note that this is not the same as disabling
 optimisation as it relies on the compiler's default optimisation level,
 which I think is typically -O2.

 Cactus/make/configure.in sets these to default to -O0.  So if you have
 OPTIMISE=no, you should get -O0.  If this is not working, this is a bug in
 Cactus.

 I hadn't realised this. In that case, --no-optimise would have been
 sufficient for my purpose. I have now committed the patch to make
 --optimise work as it should.
