Presumably 'if (CHECKING_P)' can be used for performance-critical parts
(in this case the condition will be DCE-d) and also for those parts of
the compiler which we want to decouple from 'options.h'.
IIRC, Jeff's idea was get rid of 'ENABLE_CHECKING' completely and use
either 'flag_checking' or 'CHECKING_P'. But I don't know what is the
consensus on it (I would like to hear Jeff's and Richard's opinion).
Of course it will be easy for me to adjust the patch to whatever the
final decision will be.
