Thanks, applied... (by the way, this bug just results in an extraneous CONFIG variable being defined, right? There's no further breakage -- or am I misunderstanding the situation?)

Actually this option just controls whether to build the debugging output at all. The output is controlled at runtime with a module parameter (which can be changed via sysfs after the module is loaded), and the output defaults to off.
The reason why I want building the debugging stuff to default to y is so that distros automatically build modules with debugging enabled. Otherwise it's a pain to try and gather info from someone who has problems with a kernel they didn't build.
