Hmm... I think I ran into this too.  In package cgoban, the Makefile.in
contains the following line:

CFLAGS = @CFLAGS@ $(INCS)

The result is that if I override CFLAGS when I invoke make, I lose
$(INCS), which is a series of -I flags.  I got around the problem
by replacing that line with the following two lines:

CDEBUGOPTS = @CFLAGS@
CFLAGS = $(CDEBUGOPTS) $(INCS)

Then I invoke make with CDEBUGOPTS="-O2 -g".

It is possible that the Makefile.in in your package already contains a
variable that performs a role similar to the CDEBUGOPTS I added to
cgoban.
