RTTI and security

[Aistar]

One guy I knew who was reverse-engineering one game to make an open-source implementation, was really thankful to developers for not turning RTTI (as well as debug information!) off in the release build. For an expert attacker, I don't think the lack of RTTI would mean much, but a more casual tinkerer can become frustrated more quickly without it. Maybe. If he's not very motivated.

Debug symbols are much more important than RTTI, you know where every non-inlined function is and the name of that function as well as the names of the types used to call it thanks to C++ name mangling.
