Have you read the dpkg-buildflags manual page? If the user wants to modify
CFLAGS he doesn't set it manually but he uses one of the facility to
extend/override it. The result returned by dpkg-buildflags is supposed to
give the full CFLAGS.
So in your list:
> gcc XXX -fno-strict-aliasing foo.c
Is the right one given XXX=$(shell dpkg-buildflags --get CFLAGS).
