Yes, I know. There are half a dozen places where this is the case. Those
I've wrapped in ifdebug(FACILITY) { ... } in the code. It's not the nicest,
but at least the compiler always gets to see everything, rather than bits of
it getting hidden by the preprocessor - which means the call points will be
less likely to bit rot over time.
