Andrew,

It's one thing to be enabling more debug information if you set flags,  
and/or making it more consistent, but I'm not happy with you removing  
debug information by default.  At least from reading the changeset  
diff, it seems there is no way to get what was previously the default  
amount of debug info, which is source,lines (but not vars).

Source and lines are good to get useful stack traces in the face of  
exceptions, even if var information is not present.  var information  
is typically not required in product builds.
