I actually agree. Having to recompile when building a compiler for
debugging is not such a big deal IMO. We could set things up so that
all debugging flags can be made either variables or constants, possibly
depending on a configure-time option. Once debugging, you can just
enable/disable debugging options by changing the variable from the 
debugger.
No need to recompile or even restart anything.
