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.
