In addition to guidance to build backends, should there be guidance for tools such as cibuildwheel which specify config to build backends?
For example, should they add an option to enable frame pointers in backends, and perhaps make it the default at some point?

The clarification here looks right to me. I left a comment on python/cpython#155172; depending on the intended scope there, we may want to reflect its relationship to the future standardized field here.
We'll probably also want to update corresponding CPython docs, since Doc/using/configure.rst still says that the flags "propagate to third-party C extensions through sysconfig".
