What I've done is to alter config.nmake slightly to allow the 
specification of WIRESHARK_ENVIRONMENT_CFLAGS as an environment variable
the value of which is then added to the end of the CFLAGS (after all the 
other stuff) in config.nmake.

So: I then set WIRESHARK_ENVIRONMENT_CFLAGS to /Od

My experience has been that the "last seen" value for an option 
specified multiple times is the one that is used by the 'cl' command (at 
least for the options I've wanted to override).

If this is considered useful (and not harmful), I can commit the 
config.nmake change.
