As far as I know it's still a work in progress, at least judging by the
changelog comments; when the version number is increased to 3.2.2.0 or
above I think that would mean a more confident change.

Most of the example code I showed was just setting Makefile variables,
so it should go outside any targets (normally near the top of
debian/rules). Depending on the structure of the upstream Makefile, you
might need to arrange for those parameters to be passed to it in some
other way. It varies from package to package.
