The best patch is HARMONY-803 from Ivan. AFAIR, the only reason it is
not committed is the lack on windows support (doors are ok).
If nobody volunteers to make the windows, I am afraid, I will have
to. We need to have full debug build everywhere. Being not the greatest
expert in windows, I am warning you :)
There is one more limitation to overcome here. We need to fix a number
of Jitrino bugs that are reproducible on classlib tests with Jitrino
in debug mode (thanks to Alexey Varlamov for reporting them). That's
what I am doing now.

I hope to have a better FAQ entry -- "options" instead of the "patch".
Now it's the best place in .. ehm, "build troubleshooting"
