The mach64 people may find this a useful thing to do on their driver: I've just recently done what John C. had always said we should be doing: Keep the debug 'printfs' compiled in all the time and be able to switch them on/off from the command line. This has been a huge help both tracking down bugs and also optimizing for new applications (eg the viewperf tests).
On the tcl branch, I can turn mesa debug flags on like this: MESA_DEBUG=api,texture ./gears this will set MESA_VERBOSE to (MESA_VERBOSE_API|MESA_VERBOSE_TEXTURE) Similarly, RADEON_DEBUG=fallbacks,ioctls ./gears will set RADEON_DEBUG to (DEBUG_FALLBACKS|DEBUG_IOCTLS) The performance penalty for keeping the printfs compiled in seems insigificant so far...
