Not sure which part of debug things in the field doesn't explain it,
having people remove the debugging code would sort of work against fixing
problems. Having a config option might be possible, but then I'd have to
deal with people who think they know what they are doing turning it off,
so I'd rather not. Next think you know some distro turns it off and you
have users who you can't help anymore.
