It's still possible by changing the CFLAGS to not include '-gstabs+' or even easier by 
stripping the debug symbols after compilation.Which btw saves quite a lot of space.
(However, strongly disliked by some devs, so better don't ask anything if doing so :/)

But Molle is right, per default debug symbols are included. So if you build it by yourself
everything should be fine unless you explizitly change it.
If you use some binary packages you probably should contact the packager and ask him to
include the debugging symbols.
The wine devs doesn't really like distributed packages without debugging symbols *g*
