Poke around in a generated Makefile and look for CXXFLAGS; it should
have -g (possibly with something after it, like 2 or gdb) in it
somewhere.  If it does, that should be all you need.  If it doesn't,
then configure may be picking up some CXXFLAGS from somewhere (it's
leaked into your environment, set somewhere, perhaps?), so you need to
prefix your configure command with CXXFLAGS=-g, as follows:

CXXFLAGS="-g -O2" ./configure --prefix=$PREFIX <remaining configure args>
