The system should behave the same whether develhelp is used or not.
If you do something like
#ifdef DEVELHELP
if(input_not_correct)
{
print("error message");
return ERROR;
}
#endif
then the application will work correctly (e.g., handle the error) with
DEVELHELP and probably crash without. But DEVELHELP is supposed to
expose bugs, not work around them. So in this example, the "return
ERROR" should be omitted.
