Thanks. I'm not sure that the above really helps. All it says is not
to call getconf for LFS_CFLAGS or LFS_LDFLAGS. It doesn't tell what's
the proper way of setting them via dpkg-buildflags. What is does say
is that using 'abi=+lfs' will append '-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' to CPPFLAGS, which clearly isn't the same
thing. It might indeed accomplish the same result, but that really
isn't clear in the manual page.
