Umm, why?

1) This is an unusual use case.

2) Zeroing memory that doesn't need to be zeroed has a performance cost.

3) It's very easy to recompile a debug build for debugging.

IMO, the default build should always be a release build with release
optimizations and tradeoffs. A debug build should be the exception.
