If you mean debug options for compiling Emacs, I don't think it
matters.

I suggest to try the tools pointed out here:

  https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=43389#158

and when the issue happens, collect the data and ask here where and
how to upload it for analysis.

Thanks.

P.S. Please CC the other people I added to the CC line, as I don't
think they are subscribed to the bug list, and it is important for us
to keep them in the loop, so they could help us investigate this.
