Are you referrring to the template set that is explicitly meant for
applicants that want to do package maintenance (in contrast to, say,
documentation)?
In particular I don't see anything about compiler flags in the ts.doc
template.
In general, a prospective applicant needs to do some rather thorough
searching before he finds the template at all - they are publicly
viewable, but not simply through clearly marked links from the NM
corner webpage. Long before the would-be applicant stumbles across
the templates, he will have seen
<http://www.debian.org/devel/join/nm-step4> which clearly indicates
that the T&S step depends on what kind of contributions the applicant
wants to make to Debian.
