Comment:
The patch fixes the '--enable-debug' switch to work
as the comments suggest that it should,  The C 'DEBUG'
flag is now undefined by default and gets defined (as 1)
if you configure with '--enable-debug'.

This reverses an effect of a recent change that hardwired
'DEBUG' to '1'.

Comment:
Shouldnt there NDEBUG be defined in the non-debug case ?

Some libc functions act on NDEBUG, e.g. assert(). See "man assert".

Comment:
I notice another AC_DEFINED(DEBUG) at the top of the file.
Shouldn't that be removed?

Comment:
I don't think we currently use assert, but there is no harm in adding NDEBUG to 
the normal non-debug case in case someone would like to use it when debugging.  
No idea if assert behaves this way on every platform.
