But couldn't the sysadmin equally well write a config file to achieve
the same effect should they want to?
Yes, probably so. I was only pulling from the precedent of the MPI
param checking for the tri-state.
Having it enabled (and on) in the standard "debug" build is going to
change the behaviour of applications with using a debug library, may
well render bugs un-reproducible in debug mode or worse you may end up
with end-user applications that only run in debug mode and not with a
normal build.
Agreed. Just to be totally clear: I, too, would not advocate that
this feature be automatically enabled in debug builds. It should
default to compiled-out in all cases -- only enabled via a configure
switch.
