Hmm, don't remember there ever being a Jikes "magic property" for debug --
there's emacs, pedantic, and fulldepend, and there used to be warnings,
which is now deprecated. But in any case...

Use a property for your 'debug' attribute in your <javac> tasks. If you've
already got a bunch of people used to "build.compiler.debug" (or
whatever), use that -- otherwise, you might want to use something like
"javac.debug".  Set a default for it, either in a properties file that
gets loaded in or in the build.xml -- then command-line defines (or user
properties files, if you allow for those) will override the default.
